Abstract
An Internet-of-things device can detect, using one or more sensors, a condition exceeding a predefined condition threshold. If the condition is occurring at a location outside of an area monitored by the sensors of the Internet-of-things device, a communication device can transmit an investigation request to an unmanned aircraft. The investigation request can include a request to monitor an environment at the location. The Internet-of-things device can then receive an event report identifying whether a class of event is or was occurring at the location from the unmanned aircraft. The event report can include one or more event labels. The Internet-of-things device can transform, with an artificial intelligence engine, the one or more event labels into machine learned knowledge in an Internet-of-things knowledge domain.
