Description:
Wildfires are a real-life problem that is affecting countries all over the world. This year
has seen horrible wildfires that caused a great amount of devastation. Currently, wildfire
suppression is conducted via wildfire fighting teams only after a fire has been reported
and scouted. Our goal to create an all-terrain autonomous vehicle (ATAV) to traverse
wooded areas and then suppress fires. We will be designing a to scale vehicle, to travel to
predetermined locations, detect early wildfires, and suppress them. While communicating
data in real time to a base station.
Deliverable
Our project will integrate new control approaches based on deep reinforcement learning
(and other machine learning approaches) with a controller, and other visual sensors, to
simulate our proposed system and deliver an ATAV for fire detection, monitoring and
suppression. |
