A Good Use of a Drone

Drones Fight Fires

     Drones can be used for bad things. For instance, a drone crashed in at the U.S. Open. They can also be used for good things taking extraordinary photos. But they can also be used for great things, including there new uses of which include helping fight fires. Engineers at MIT and Olin College are creating a drone that can help firefighters. It will not replace them by putting out the fires, but it will aid them in seeing where the fire is or how bad it is. Systems that track fires alert people are 12-24  hours after the fire starts. Drones will alert people a couple minutes after the fire starts. A big improvement if you ask me.

     As I said before, drones won't replace firefighter. They won't replace them because for one thing they aren't fire resistant. I'm pretty sure that they also aren't water resistant though I may be wrong about that.

     The reason that we are using drones to assist in firefighting is because they are easy to get them started up and also because they are easy to build. If a drone gets damaged or broken, we can just quickly make a new one. How? Because they are based off of already existing models so that all we have to do is tinker with it. Do you think that using drones will help enough for them to make a difference, or will they just break down if they get too close to the flames?
