An Innovative, Automated, Smart Wildfire Defense System for Homes
CE 557
Wildfires are a severe hazard in residential areas around the globe. An increasing number of buildings are destroyed each year, with expected significant growth in the future. This trend is primarily attributed to climate change and continued urban expansion into forests. Risk mitigation and elimination are essential to preserving human lives and wealth, requiring an integrated approach involving fuel depletion, fire extinction, and engineering practices to enhance protection against wildfires.
