This Software Empowers Autonomous Drones To Stop Wildfires

We don’t need more fire suppression. We need more prescribed fire.

now that is fantastic landscape scenery

Great idea and execution. They need to create a custom drone helicopter platform specific for this purpose, removing the cockpit and other unneeded equipment to maximize payload (water)

Water is ideal from a toxicity and environmental damage standpoint. We see what the US Miltary's choice of fire suppression chemicals have created decades of health and environmental consequences. Fire and Water are pretty natural. Should probably stick to the basics and just deal with the weight.

Good

It makes sense to use the air where you don’t want roads, and machines where there aren’t enough people, but maintenance is a big issue, and full autonomy isn’t needed.

[@hmm5131]

If you watched the video, you'd understand why they say autonomous IS needed. I'll leave it to you to actually watch the video to find out...

[@DanniDuck]

Maintenance is a big issue? You know what a bigger issue is? The maintenance is likely far less due to there being no risk to human lives.

Nice try-would never work.

Technology in the sky is what's causing this problem 🙃 #ClimateEngineering #WeatherWarfare.

How serious can you take someone who is foolish enough to believes in global warming?

[@roygillespie4370]

Hmmm...Research has shown that the temperatures in June and July 2023 were the hottest on record. Every year there are new records...and you fail to acknowledge global warming? It sure isn't getting colder!

😂 way to introduce yourself to the class, man
