new fire fighter for contest.

I'm looking for advice about fire detection equipment that will
locate
a flame (candle). There are at least two items to choose from. They
are the Eltec Pyroelectric Sensor Package and the Hamamatsu UVTron
Flame Detector Package. Neither of these packages maybe enough, as
one fellow needed an additional phototransistor-photocell pair to get
a heading towards the candle.
There is a local fire fighting contest in Huntsville Al this month
and
it's going to be a rush to get everything running to compete. Any
and
all help will be appreciated.

Eltec Pyroelectric Sensor Package and the Hamamatsu UVTron
Flame Detector Package?
Looks like I'll need an AD converter for the Pyroelectric sensor.
I'm
not sure UVTron. When I went to the Acroname web site, they really
like the rugwarrior interface and they don't mention the basic stamp
for the uvtron.
All comments are appreciated.
Thanks

investigating the offerings that I might use for a vision system. Before you
splurge on the Eltec part, you may want to check these two links also.
http://www.glolab.com/pirparts/pirparts.html
http://www.plazaearth.com/usr/gasperi/pyro.htm
The PIR sensor offered by Glolab is only $4. The drawback is that it
requires a bit of hardware to support it. The good news is that the second
link herein shows details of a successful application, and some good notes.
I would suggest at least reading these also before making a decision.
