Published purpose

The project aims to enhance machine perception so it can reliably distinguish between an actual wildfire and harmless heat sources such as hot rocks, barbecues, hot tubs, or vehicles. Making this distinction is critical to ensure water or fire suppressant is applied only where needed, minimizing waste and preventing unnecessary damage.
