For just under $10,000, customers can deploy their “Thermonator” via Bluetooth or WiFi connection.
The robotic dog is controlled by a cellphone app, and can run, jump and spit flames up to 30ft for about an hour.
Some suggested uses for the technology include:
- Wildfire Control and Prevention
- Agricultural Management
- Ecological Conservation
- Snow and Ice Removal
- Entertainment and SFX
