Fighting Treetop Fire Overview
Fighting Treetop Fire is developing a laser technology designed to constrain wildfires by stripping leaves from trees, thereby preventing a fire’s front from advancing as a treetop fire and reducing it to a controllable fire. The company’s solution works in all weather conditions.

New laser solution could slow spread of forest fires
Fighting Treetop Fire (FTF), a startup founded in 2012, has developed algorithm-controlled laser technology to combat forest fires. The technology uses laser beams to zap leaves and thin branches off treetops, forcing the flames downward where they can be more easily controlled. FTF is currently in the engineering, modeling, and testing phase and is seeking partnerships, licensing agreements, and investments to bring the technology to market. The companys patented technology has garnered interest from Australia, which experiences devastating wildfires every summer. FTFs laser technology has the potential to create safe zones and escape routes for firefighters and residents, as well as aid in cutting back lower-to-the-ground foliage in the path of fire. The technology could also be valuable for sensitive worksites such as power companies and utilities.
