The conceptual 'Feuxzy' drone has been created as a solution to keep forest fires at bay within rural areas to prevent them from getting out of control.
Designed by Martin Rico and Adolfo Esquivel of Imaginactive, the drone works by monitoring woods, forests and parks for fires, and using low-frequency bass sounds to disrupt the air surrounding the fire. This will work to remove the oxygen from the flame source to help kill the flames quickly without the need for human intervention or even water to keep operators out of harms way.
The conceptual 'Feuxzy' drone is powered by a lithium ion batteries or a fuel cell that can continue to operate even in the face of extreme temperatures.
