Data Blanket
Company Description
Data Blanket is developing small fleets of AI-powered drones that can perform self-guided missions to assess wildfires and automatically share that information with incident commanders and pilots battling forest blazes. Data Blanket’s strategy is to deploy drones outfitted with RGB and infrared cameras, AI-based computational software, 5G and Wi-Fi communication capabilities, and advanced navigational features. The drones are programmed to navigate and inspect a fire area, launching and landing on their own, without guidance from pilots. With this technology, the company’s mission is to create a measurable decline in loss of life, property, and forests to wildfire and substantially reduce wildfire emissions.
