A smoke detector detects smoke, a fire detector detects fire. A loop detector, surely, detects a loop.

Many detectors are also based on a loop of wire. For example, loops within the tarmac detect the presence of a car (a mass of ferromagnetic material) and triggers or promotes a change if the lights from red to green. Other sensors use loops as aerials, for example in theft-prevention systems used in shops.

In the context with computer programming, one can envision a variety of methods to detect a loop which fails to terminate (and unintentionally endless loop, or one which doesn't terminate in a timely fashion). Critical loops can be monitored for a maximum number of iterations or a maximum duration.

What are the differences between photoelectric and ionization smoke detectors?

Photoelectric smoke detectors use a light beam to detect smoke particles, while ionization smoke detectors use radioactive particles to detect smoke. Photoelectric detectors are better at detecting smoldering fires, while ionization detectors are more sensitive to fast-flaming fires.


Did NASA invent smoke detectors?

No, NASA did not invent smoke detectors. Smoke detectors were actually invented by George Andrew Darby in 1902. NASA has, however, improved smoke detectors for use in spacecraft and space stations.

What are the differences between ionization and photoelectric smoke detectors?

Ionization smoke detectors use a small amount of radioactive material to ionize the air, while photoelectric smoke detectors use a light beam to detect smoke particles. Ionization detectors are better at detecting fast-flaming fires, while photoelectric detectors are more sensitive to slow-smoldering fires.

What brand of motion detectors have the the greatest range?

There are many levels of long range motion detectors, personal use and commercial use. Some motion detectors can detect movement up to 8-10 miles away. Some good brands for long range motion detectors are Honeywell and KNX.


How can I use the ffmpeg loop feature to create a continuous video loop?

To create a continuous video loop using the ffmpeg loop feature, you can use the "loop" option in the ffmpeg command followed by the number of times you want the video to loop. For example, you can use the command "ffmpeg -streamloop -1 -i input.mp4 output.mp4" to loop the video indefinitely.
