Summary
Fighting wildfires with AI, airship drones, and sensors. New high-tech could help battle future blazes.
Monitoring & Rapid Response
Continuous monitoring and ready to be the first responder within 40 minutes for rapid containment. The endurance for extended autonomous piloting for over a week and to carry a payload of over 6,400 gal of firefighting blends and retardants.
Containment & Suppression
Artificial rain technology is based on the use of unmanned aerostatically unloaded drones. Single piloting as part of a division or a chain over 7 miles long at the edge of the infrastructure. Resistant to winds of any direction up to 108 mph.
Pains
Wildland firefighters safety, limited resources, hardto-reach locations, long deployment times, controlled burn practices, harsh surface conditions, burnout and cancer in wildland firefighters, inadequate budget.
Benefits
Lowest cost of lifting cargo into the air, of acquisition and ownership, longest continuous operation, unmanned system, AI/ML, fuel efficient, no expensive infrastructure required for parking and maintenance, the highest speed and stability in flight among airships, all-weather, highest level of flight safety.
