Abstract
A security drone includes a drone housing defining a cavity and an actuator coupled to the drone housing and designed to move the drone housing through the predetermined area. The security drone further includes a camera designed to detect image data corresponding to the predetermined area and a network access device designed to transmit and receive data via a network. The security drone further includes a drone processor positioned within the cavity and coupled to the actuator, the camera, and the network access device. The drone processor is designed to control the actuator to move the drone housing through the predetermined area, identify a potential threat in the predetermined area based on the image data as the drone housing is moved through the predetermined area, and transmit potential threat data corresponding to the potential threat to a remote device when the potential threat is identified.
