The purpose of the project to develop a self-supporting needle system is to create an innovative self-supporting needle system. With this system, it will be possible to spray water on a typical flame front that characterizes a forest fire. It therefore has in mind the protection and safety of combatants, thus avoiding their direct exposure to flame fronts.
It will be through the coupling of a multi-rotor “DRONE” device that the movement and positioning of the SAP will be controlled. Something that will lift and support a water line fed by a firefighting vehicle, thus taking advantage of the vertical thrust of the jet.
Taking into account the different areas to be covered for the execution of the project, the consortium was established taking into account these same areas, as well as each of its entities, in order to guarantee the optimization of the desired results.
Like this, considering all the objectives that are intended to be achieved, the project proposal is then endorsed by the creation of partnerships brought together with Jacinto, ADAI, Sleeklab and the Functional Category. These partnerships represent different skills in the areas necessary for the development of the Project and they all complement each other.
Having the role of leading promoter of the Project, Jacinto has technical capacity, specialized teams in different areas of knowledge and infrastructure for its development. This also includes testing, production and promotion of the proposed solution with the various entities of the national and international operating system.
