Autonomous Firefighting System with Coordinated Drone Fleet

A method of suppressing fire with a rapid response aerial device, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing an autonomous aerial firefighting device having a frame, a plurality of propellers, an onboard tank, a nozzle, a camera, and a fire-retardant chemical, wherein said onboard tank containing said fire-retardant chemical for fire suppression;
• directing a spray of said fire-retardant chemical with said nozzle;
• autonomously actuating said nozzle when said autonomous aerial firefighting device reaches a fire target location, wherein said nozzle having an adjuster for direct targeting of said fire-retardant chemical;
• wherein said autonomous aerial firefighting device is a plurality of said autonomous aerial firefighting devices wirelessly coupled with a control server through a network;
• wherein said control server is a central coordination hub for coordinating flight patterns of said plurality of said autonomous aerial firefighting devices;
• wherein each of said plurality of said autonomous aerial firefighting devices having a GPS module for real-time geolocation tracking and said coordinating flight patterns;
• wirelessly communicating with said plurality of said autonomous aerial firefighting devices and said control server;
• and
• coordinating each of said plurality of said autonomous aerial firefighting devices for suppressing fire.
