california-teens-invention-stops-house-fires-from-spreading

Thank you my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for making us aware that 11th grader Arul Mathur invented the Fire-Activated-Canister-Extinguisher, or F.A.C.E.
"Arul Mathur moved away from his friends and the familiarity of New Jersey to California, then immediately grabbed a local problem by the scruff of the neck with a brilliant invention.
Along with potentially winning himself a career in advertisement television with an excellent reveal video and excitable timbre, an 11th grade San Francisco student has invented a fire-activated extinguisher to protect the property of those he loves now that he lives in a state that has a wildfire “season.”
A single device is capable of protecting fire-risk areas in one’s house, while multiple can form a defensive perimeter around one’s entire property against low to moderate intensity fires.'

Why Fires Pose Such a Great Threat — and How to Prevent Them | Arul Mathur | TEDxMeritAcademy
Millions of acres of land are destroyed across the nation each year as a result of wildfires. What if a fire were to erupt near your home? Arul Mathur discusses the threats that fires of all types pose to our everyday lives, and calls for a solution to control the damage being done by them. He also explains the effects that fires have on our society, and presents an idea which may help in stopping this crisis. Arul Mathur is a tenth-grade student in Danville, California. He has a passion for public speaking, and competes in speech and debate tournaments across the Bay Area. He also has an interest in computer science and medicine. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
