The low- and medium-altitude monitoring system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) features high mobility, low operating costs, and simple maintenance. It possesses rapid, real-time ground surveillance capabilities and is a novel system for rapid acquisition of real-time television and infrared imaging at low and medium altitudes. It can enable early detection of forest fires in remote areas inaccessible to ground patrols and accurately grasp and promptly understand various dynamic information at major forest fire sites. It also solves problems such as the inability of aircraft to fly at night or the inability to fly due to reduced visibility caused by smoke. As a powerful supplement to existing forestry monitoring methods, it has unique advantages in resource and environmental monitoring in areas inaccessible by vehicles and personnel, forest fire monitoring, and rescue command. In particular, long-endurance, high-payload UAVs will undoubtedly see widespread application in forest fire monitoring, prevention, fighting, and post-disaster assessment.
UAVs are not only weapons of war; they are now appearing in the civilian sector, used for delivery, and are popular among model aircraft enthusiasts. This technology is now being applied in urban streets to enhance public safety and reduce losses caused by urban fires. Firefighting drones will be a core exhibit at the Asian General Aviation Exhibition, to be held from November 27 to 30, 2025, at the Zhuhai International Airshow Center.
