The Infinite Brief

The delivery drones can be used to record video of consented user’s property to gather data that can be analyzed to look out for certain data points, such as a broken window, or a fire or if a garage door was left open during the day, the patent described.

The surveillance function can be limited through geo-fencing, a technology used to draw a virtual boundary around the property under surveillance.

Any image or data that the drone captures outside the geo-fence would be obscured or removed.
