Current fire sprinkler systems rely on glass bulbs with a heat sensitive liquid. These systems only release water when the surrounding temperature reaches a certain level. This allows time for the fire to expand and cause more damage. Traditional fire sprinklers do not control how much water comes. It is all or nothing. This in turn wastes water and increases property damage. Our solution is to develop a system that can preemptively target and put out fires to reduce property damage and reduce water consumption.
