Systems and methods for operating drones in response to an incident

This invention describes a drone that automatically flies to a specific area within a property when a triggering event, like a fire or theft, is detected. The drone collects sensor data at the incident location and sends it to a user's device. The claims specifically focus on sending this data to an insurance company for handling claims related to damage or theft.

Why it matters: Since 2020, drone autonomy and AI-driven sensor data analysis have significantly advanced, making reliable incident detection and automated navigation more feasible. Improved IoT and cloud infrastructure also simplify secure data transmission to insurance providers.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
