Vortex

Our innovative design evaluates the probability of wildfires by monitoring humidity and temperature levels. When the wildfire risk is high, the system activates a misting mechanism to lower the ambient temperature and increase humidity, effectively reducing the wildfire risk. Additionally, the system includes an alert function that notifies authorities when abnormal temperature and humidity levels are detected, suggesting that a wildfire may have already started. This function aids in issuing evacuation alerts, guiding people to safety, and minimizing potential casualties. The primary objective of our project is to reduce the likelihood of man-made wildfires. By providing critical risk information to authorities and implementing preventative measures, our system aims to protect surrounding communities and mitigate potential damage.
