In a demonstration, Sikorsky and Rain showcased the potential of autonomous flight technology to address wildfires.
An autonomous Black Hawk helicopter equipped with Rain's Wildfire Mission Autonomy System demonstrated precise water drops to suppress test fires.
The demonstration highlighted the potential of autonomous aircraft to support firefighting teams in containing fires at their earliest stages.
The integration of Rain's mission autonomy system with Sikorsky's MATRIX flight autonomy could allow firefighting teams to respond quickly and accurately to wildfires.
