|
FISHERIES
|
- Sensors track the water quality in ponds, measuring oxygen, pH, temperature, etc., and alerts are sent to farmers in real time.
|
|
USE OF DRONES IN FARMING
|
- Drones equipped with GPS and sensors spray fertilisers based on soil mapping, ensuring precise application and reducing the use of chemicals and lowering the environmental impact.
- Drones equipped with cameras and sprayers also detect pests using imaging and AI, and then apply pesticides precisely.

FIRE CONTROL
|
- Automatic fire extinguishers have been installed in schools and public areas.
- These are shaped like balls and are filled with UL-approved monoammonium phosphate.
- (UL is a more-than-a-century-old certification company, and monoammonium phosphate is a popular fire retardant.)
- The extinguishers are activated within 10-15 seconds of contact with flames.
