Partner With Wildfire AI Researchers & Tech Specialists

General Inquiries and Agency Collaboration

Wildfire behavior waits for no administrative cycle. We prioritize direct, high-signal communication with operational units, forestry services, and emergency management agencies. When evaluating a new deployment zone, our engineers require specific topographical data and an inventory of your existing infrastructure. We bypass automated ticketing systems entirely—ensuring a technical specialist reviews your operational requirements from the first interaction.

To initiate a site assessment or discuss integrating our detection models into your current workflow, reach out to our primary dispatch at [email protected]. Include your agency's current camera network specifications, preferred communication protocols, and any immediate coverage gaps. While our detection algorithms achieve high accuracy in controlled environments, field performance remains heavily dependent on local atmospheric interference and camera placement. Providing detailed site context upfront allows us to model potential constraints before scheduling a formal consultation.

Academic Research and PhD Opportunities

The Fuego Project and our broader machine learning initiatives rely on continuous, rigorous academic integration. We actively recruit doctoral candidates and postdoctoral researchers focusing on computer vision, atmospheric modeling, and edge computing under extreme thermal constraints. Our lab operates at the intersection of theoretical computer science and ruggedized hardware deployment.

Prospective researchers should email their curriculum vitae and a concise proposal outlining their intended focus area to [email protected]. We look for candidates who understand that theoretical models must translate to physical, proven hardware deployments in remote wilderness areas. Priority goes to individuals with demonstrated experience in low-latency sensor networks or multi-modal data fusion. If your research aligns with our current research publications, explicitly state which methodologies you intend to build upon or challenge.

Lab Visitation and Security Protocols

Physical access to our hardware testing facilities requires strict adherence to security and safety protocols. We handle sensitive calibration equipment, high-powered optics, and prototype sensor arrays that demand a tightly controlled environment. Consequently, we do not accommodate walk-in visitors or unannounced facility tours.

All site visits must be scheduled at least two weeks in advance through your designated project liaison. Upon approval, visitors receive a clearance brief detailing restricted zones, data-handling policies, and required personal protective equipment for the thermal testing chambers. We enforce these measures to protect both the integrity of our ongoing experiments and the safety of our guests.

Establish contact early in your planning phase. Send a concise, technically detailed email to our team today to secure your position in our upcoming deployment or research cycles.
