Summary
Meet Seneca, the self-driving wildfire-fighting drone that can deliver 500 to 1,000 gallons of fire suppressant in under five minutes—controlled from a tablet or phone. Designed to reach flames before they explode, it flies through wind, smoke, and night, giving firefighters a safer, faster edge. As wildfires burn twice as much land and crews shrink, Seneca’s tech lets teams respond smarter, not harder. Testing begins in Colorado and California, with Lake Tahoe next—because stopping fires early means saving lives and land. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
