The counter fire helper system is implemented using a 2xf device. The 2xf installed throughout the mountain checks the location of the fire quickly and calculates factors such as the surrounding terrain, humidity, and wind direction to inform the firefighter of the location of the operation. By the control of the firefighters, 2xf makes a remote fire after a warning sound for the safety of the climbers, causing a fire in the area and evolving the forest fire. This system solves the shortcomings of operational failure due to incomplete measurement of existing counterfund operations and damage to firefighters due to the input of a lot of manpower.
