Fire

[Teegate]

Imagine being in the barrens and a fire bearing down on you. How much time do you have to get away?

Which way would you run?

BTW, how did the camera survive that heat?

 

[Teegate]

I would have run towards the camera. As you said the camera survived.

True, but the camera was designed to survive.

In-fire video capture using specially designed heat resistant housings allows fire behaviour researchers to document fire behaviour characteristics such as rate of spread, flame length, ember transfer and spot fire development.
FP Innovations Wildland Fire Operations Research Group uses in-fire video camera housings designed by Missoula Technology Development Center and developed by the University of Alberta's Mechanical Engineering department.
