Inside a green orb planted in the German countryside is a high-tech aid to prevent wildfires that have grown more common and destructive with rising global temperatures.
The installation, resembling a giant golf ball covered in solar panels, is the hangar for an AI-powered drone that its developer hopes one day will be able to sniff out and extinguish new blazes in minutes.
The sort of tinderbox conditions which promote blazes -- where heat, drought and strong winds dry out the landscape -- have increased with climate change. During Dryad's demonstration on Thursday -- the first for a computer-steered wildfire detection drone according to the company -- chemicals in smoke from burning wood were picked up by sensors distributed in the forest.
Dryad eventually hopes to have the drone descend below the canopy and put out the fire using a novel technology: a"sonic cannon" blasting low-frequency sound waves at the right pressure to suppress small fires. The greatest benefits of an autonomous fire prevention system would be in areas where"civilisation meets nature", Brinkschulte said.
