# 2022 Aerostat |
The risk of forest fires is growing exponentially with the worsening global warming crisis, leading to increased loss of trees and green spaces
Aerostat is a mechanical and reusable smoke-sensitive helium tank which inflates when smoke is detected and rises above the tree canopy, meaning that official in watchtowers can see the warn-ing before the fire spreads. Usable at night due to the phosphorescent material the balloon is also cost effective with a high service life and low power consumption.
