Introducing Fire Trak: The Next Generation in Forest Fire Management tool set by Unmanned Systems Research (USR)
In the face of increasingly unpredictable and devastating forest fires, Unmaned Systems Research developed FireTrak—a cutting-edge solution designed to revolutionize how we analyze and detect forest fire hotspots.
Discover the Power of Precision with Radiometric Thermal Imaging
FireTrak harnesses the unparalleled accuracy of Radiometric Thermal imaging to detect forest fire hotspots by accurately measuring surface temperature variations with high sensitivity.
This allows for the detection of even small, smoldering hotspots not seen my the human eye. These small hotspots could potentially grow into larger fires if left undetected.
​
This technology pinpoints heat signatures with precision, enabling first responders to react swiftly and effectively, safeguarding both natural ecosystems and communities.
Fire Trak vs Cloud Based AI Programs
Unlike cloud based fire AI tools FireTrak is local on your PC, this provides a multitude of benefits. The processing of Radiometic Thermal Imagery is completed faster and without a need for internet connection. Data is secured locally which provides fire investigators with peace of mind regarding sensitive information. FireTrak also allows you to select quantitive temperature thresholds allowing full control over what appears as a hotspot (target) after processing.
