FACILITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) BASED SENSOR AND UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE (UAV), AND METHOD FOR THE SAME
First Claim
1. A facility management system using an Internet of things (IoT) based sensor and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the facility management system comprising:
- at least one IoT based sensor unit installed in a facility requiring management and safety inspection and configured to measure an abnormal behavior of the facility;
a measurement result analysis and action terminal connected to the IoT based sensor unit over an IoT communication network and configured to collect and analyze a signal measured by the IoT based sensor unit, determine whether the facility has an abnormal behavior, and take an action corresponding to the determination;
a UAV configured to fly close to the facility and capture an image of the facility to determine whether the facility is abnormal; and
a UAV flying control terminal configured to remotely control calling, returning, flight, charging, facility recognition, and image capturing of the UAV in response to the action of the measurement result analysis and action terminal, whereinwhen the abnormal behavior of the facility is primarily measured by the IoT based sensor unit, the abnormal behavior of the facility is secondarily precisely measured by the UAV capturing an image to determine whether the facility is abnormal.

Abstract
Provided are a facility management system and method using an Internet of things (IoT) based sensor and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The facility management system and method may determine a current status and an abnormal behavior of a facility by primarily measuring the abnormal behavior of the facility in real time by a plurality of IoT based sensors included in the facility and secondarily precisely measuring the abnormal behavior of the facility by capturing an image through a UAV when necessary or when the abnormal behavior is detected, and may prevent a false alarm due to an error of a measurement sensor by performing two inspections through the IoT based sensor unit and the UAV.
