How It Works
How Nigahban Protects Your Building
From your existing CCTV to instant fire alerts. Here is exactly how Nigahban works, step by step.
Setup
Four Steps to Protection
Getting started with Nigahban is simple. No new cameras, no construction, no downtime.
Assess Your CCTV Setup
We evaluate your existing camera infrastructure: brand, model, positioning, and network setup. Nigahban works with any IP camera that supports RTSP or ONVIF protocols, including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, and more.
No new cameras needed. If your CCTV is already recording, it can work with Nigahban.
Connect to Nigahban
Our team configures the RTSP streams from your cameras into the Nigahban system. This takes under an hour for most setups. The system connects to your existing NVR or directly to individual IP cameras.
On-premises deployment means your video feeds never leave your building.
AI Starts Monitoring
Once connected, Nigahban begins analyzing every frame in real time. Our proprietary AI engine runs continuous detection, identifying fire, smoke, and thermal anomalies across all connected cameras simultaneously.
The system runs 24/7 with zero human intervention required.
Get Alerts Instantly
When a threat is detected, alerts fire within seconds across your chosen channels: WhatsApp, Email, Telegram, or Voice Call. Each alert includes a captured frame, camera location, and timestamp.
Configure who gets alerted, how, and for which cameras, all from the dashboard.

Real Scenarios
See Nigahban in Action
Real-world scenarios showing how Nigahban protects different types of buildings across Karachi.
Textile Factory in SITE Area
Problem
Night shift with minimal supervision. A machine overheats near a stack of raw cotton bales. No workers in that section notice.
Solution
Nigahban detects early smoke rising from the machine area through the factory CCTV.
Outcome
WhatsApp alert sent to the shift supervisor within 2 seconds, with a frame capture showing exactly which machine and area. Fire contained before it spreads to inventory.
Korangi Warehouse
Problem
Chemical storage area. A short circuit ignites flammable materials in a section with limited foot traffic. Nobody is nearby.
Solution
Nigahban identifies flames across multiple camera angles, cross-verifying the detection for maximum confidence.
Outcome
Email alert with frame captures from two cameras sent to the facility manager and the fire safety officer. Emergency response initiated within minutes.
Lucky One Mall
Problem
Food court kitchen produces steam and cooking fumes throughout the day. Traditional smoke detectors would trigger constant false alarms.
Solution
Nigahban distinguishes between normal cooking steam and actual fire or hazardous smoke, reducing false positives.
Outcome
When a real kitchen fire breaks out, the system correctly identifies it and sends an evacuation alert, while ignoring the routine steam all day.
