Abstract
A system including a drone or unmanned vehicle configured to perform surveillance of a premises. The drone surveillance includes autonomous navigation and/or remote or optional piloting around the premises. The drone includes a controller coupled to a plurality of sensors configured to collect drone data and security data at the premises, wherein the controller is configured to generate control data for the drone and the premises using the drone data and the security data. A remote device coupled to the drone includes a user interface configured to present the drone data, the security data, and/or the control data.
Claims32
A method comprising:
- detecting, by a drone associated with a premises, locations of one or more premises devices located at the premises, wherein the drone comprises an unmanned vehicle and one or more sensors, and wherein the one or more sensors are configured to determine drone data;
- receiving, by the drone and from a first premises device of the one or more premises devices, premises data;
- determining, based on at least one of the drone data or the premises data, control data associated with controlling the drone;
- and
- sending, to a computing device located external to the premises, one or more of the drone data, the premises data, the control data, or the locations of the one or more premises devices.
A system comprising:
- a drone comprising an unmanned vehicle associated with a premises and one or more sensors configured to determine drone data, wherein the drone is configured to:
- detect, by the one or more sensors, locations of one or more premises devices at the premises;
- receive, from a premises device of the one or more premises devices, premises data;
- and
- determine, based on at least one of the drone data or the premises data, control data associated with controlling the drone;
- and
- a computing device configured to communicate with the drone and to cause output, via a user interface, of one or more of the drone data, the premises data, the control data, or the locations of the one or more premises devices.
A drone device comprising:
- one or more sensors configured to determine drone data;
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the drone device to:
- detect, at a premises, locations of one or more premises devices;
- receive, from a premises device of the one or more premises devices, premises data;
- determine, based on at least one of the drone data or the premises data, control data associated with controlling the drone;
- and
- send, to a computing device located external to the premises, one or more of the drone data, the premises data, the control data, or the locations of the one or more premises devices.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause:
- detecting, by a drone associated with a premises, locations of one or more premises devices located at the premises, wherein the drone comprises an unmanned vehicle and one or more sensors, and wherein the one or more sensors are configured to determine drone data;
- receiving, by the drone and from a first premises device of the one or more premises devices, premises data;
- determining, based on at least one of the drone data or the premises data, control data associated with controlling the drone;
- and
- sending, to a computing device located external to the premises, one or more of the drone data, the premises data, the control data, or the locations of the one or more premises devices.
