How IoT Sensors Are Predicting Wildfire Risk in Real Time
Episode 33 of Internet of Things with Fexingo explores a growing frontier for connected sensors: wildfire detection and prevention. Lucas and Luna examine how a network of low-cost environmental sensors deployed across California's high-risk zones is giving firefighters hours of advance warning. They break down the tech: temperature, humidity, wind, and particulate-matter sensors feeding data into a machine-learning model that flags conditions exceeding historical thresholds. The episode profiles one specific deployment in Sonoma County, where a 2024 pilot program caught a nascent fire before…
