Ethan Pretsch highlights WatchDog Robotics, offering autonomous fire suppression systems

Host Jeremy C. Park interviews Ethan Pretsch, Founder and President of WatchDog Robotics, which offers autonomous fire suppression systems using industry leading sensors and monitoring software combined with robotic nozzles to detect fires early and rapidly extinguish them. Ethan shares his some of his background and where the idea for the business started after searching for fire suppression systems that could be used in large tent structures that were up for long periods of time. He explains the limitations of traditional sprinkler systems, which have remained unchanged since 1874, and describes their autonomous alternative that uses sensors to detect and extinguish fires within 12 seconds using robotic water cannons. The system can detect fires up to 400 feet away and deliver water to a range of about 200 feet, making it suitable for large industrial spaces, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities. Ethan notes that while the technology is evolving, traditional systems still pose risks of extensive water damage and toxic cleanup, and the autonomous solution offers a more efficient and cost-effective alternative. Jeremy and Ethan discuss the global adoption of advanced fire protection technologies, noting that while Europe and Asia have embraced these innovations, the US market is catching up. Ethan highlights the positive reception from fire engineers and code enforcement officials, suggesting that written codes will soon reflect the potential of robotic autonomous firefighting. Ethan highlights the potential markets in Tennessee, including manufacturing, distribution, and forestry products, and mentions his ties to Memphis, where he has an employee and access to a robust industrial base with skilled professionals. He emphasizes the importance of building relationships to leverage shared knowledge and support, which is crucial for driving opportunities. Ethan expresses interest in applying his technology to wildfire defense and improving plant uptime and safety. He shares advice on taking the first step towards achieving goals, emphasizing the importance of action and learning through available resources like CAD design and programming. He highlights the transformative impact of AI and current low barriers to entry, encouraging natural curiosity and willingness to learn. Ethan also provides details on how to connect with WatchDog Robotics, including their website, social media presence, and options for site visits, demonstrations, and risk assessments.
