A new approach to fighting fires
A rapid response wildfire situational awareness and initial containment system for firefighters and emergency response agencies which aims to limit the emotional, physical, and monetary loss caused by wildfires.
Our Story
Our Mission
We believe that wildfires should not be a 21st century issue. It is our mission to prevent the emotional, physical, and monetary losses due to wildfires.
Our Vision
In order to fulfil our mission, we envision a decentralized autonomous aerial system that is able to slow the spread of wildfires as they start - before they are able to threaten human life.
Our Values
At Pyronaut, we value the ability to solve real problems - both technical and social - in order to make a significant, positive impact on people’s lives and the environment.
