Firefighting Unmanned System Design Challenge for U.S. Universities
The year is 2030. A severe drought covers a large swath of the
continental United States. Wildfires have been commonplace and
firefighting resources, both personnel and equipment, have been
stretched to their limits. Another large fire has broken out and is
expanding, threatening nearby homes, schools, and businesses. The
incident commander has called for the use of unmanned systems to help
battle the blaze. The challenge is to design an unmanned aerial
firefighting system to put out the fire. Entries due: May 3, 2013.
