1. A system comprising:

  • a. a controller; and

    b. an aerial drone device configured to acquire content and communicate with the controller, wherein the aerial drone device includes a device body configured to transition from a folded configuration to an unfolded configuration and from the unfolded configuration to the folded configuration, wherein the device body includes components capable of folding such that the aerial drone device has a smaller storage footprint when in the folded configuration than when in the unfolded configuration, wherein the aerial drone device is configured to fly in the unfolded configuration, wherein while in the folded configuration the aerial drone device appears to look like another object, wherein the device body is configured to secure at least one power supply, the at least one power supply configured to supply power to;

    at least one motor which causes at least one propeller to move,a plurality of information acquisition components, wherein a first information acquisition component of the plurality of information acquisition components is positioned in an opposite direction of a second information acquisition component of the plurality of information acquisition components, wherein the plurality of information acquisition components are configured to acquire external information, andat least one camera,the at least one camera configured to acquire the content including images and/or videos, further wherein the at least one camera is configured to scan an area,wherein the aerial drone device further includes;

    a memory configured for storing an application, the application configured to;

    process the content acquired by the at least one camera and the external information acquired by the plurality of information acquisition components;

    acquire depth information using the at least one camera, the plurality of information acquisition components, or any combination thereof;

    direct the aerial drone device to navigate based on the content from the at least one camera, the external information from the plurality of information acquisition components, or any combination thereof, including avoiding at least one obstacle;

    detect a plurality of objects simultaneously;

    track at least one object utilizing the depth information;

    generate a depth map using the depth information, wherein the depth map is used to track the at least one object;

    predict a trajectory of the at least one object;

    track the at least one object based on the trajectory when a view of the at least one object is obstructed; and

    determine and follow a flight path; and

    a processor configured to process the application,wherein the aerial drone device is configured to determine when to patrol an area by analyzing social networking information and/or police information and detecting keywords within the social networking information and/or the police information, and when a number of keywords detected is above a threshold, the aerial drone device moves based on the keywords.
