Japanese researchers have developed a flying dragon that does not breathe fire, but rather pours water to extinguish the flames. Frontiers in Robotics and AI published the detailed diagram of a new firefighter robot, called the Dragon Firefighter, which is a flying firehose that can help firefighters put out the most dangerous fires.
“We believe it will take about 10 years to deploy our robot in real-world firefighting scenarios, where the primary challenge will be to be able to control the fire," says study co-author Dr. Yuichi Ambe.
