Equally to how Alarm.Com’s video analytics companies work with their cameras, the UAV-based pre-surveillance system is designed to establish unauthorized actions (reminiscent of an unauthorized particular person in a loading space after hours) and permit the safety operator to react dynamically, with out over-reacting to licensed exercise.
The complete summary reads as follows: “Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for using a drone to pre-surveil a portion of a property. In one aspect, a system may include a monitoring unit. The monitoring unit may include a network interface, a processor, and a storage device that includes instructions to cause the processor to perform operations. The operations may include obtaining data that is indicative of one or more acts of an occupant of the property, applying the obtained data that is indicative of one or more acts of the occupant of the property to a pre-surveillance rule, determining that the pre-surveillance rule is satisfied, determining a drone navigation path that is associated with the pre-surveillance rule, transmitting, to a drone, an instruction to perform pre-surveillance of the portion of the one or more properties using the drone navigation path.”
Alarm.com has lengthy been desirous about integrating UAV operations right into a broader safety context, first partnering with Qualcomm as early as 2017 to develop “guard dog” drones designed to guard properties and industrial/industrial property. Extra lately, they introduced a brand new partnership with Sunflower Labs on an autonomous safety drone resolution, designed to permit surveillance over a whole property with minimal intervention.
