Security Simulation Optimizing Guard and Drone Coordination
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing security system simulations do not account for cooperation between security guards and moving bodies, failing to optimize security coverage and response time effectively.
Innovation Solution
A simulation system that calculates and optimizes the positions of security guards and moving bodies to balance rushing time and security coverage area, using an evaluation function that increases with shorter response times and wider coverage, ensuring effective cooperation between human guards and non-human moving bodies.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If security guards are deployed to reduce rushing time, then response time improves, but labor costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces moving bodies (drones, vehicles, robots) as intermediaries between the abnormality detection system and security guards. These moving bodies carry cameras and sensors to detect abnormalities and transmit information to security guards, reducing the need for guards to physically rush to all locations while maintaining rapid response capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The moving bodies serve multiple functions: they act as mobile surveillance platforms, communication relays, and can physically transport security guards or equipment to incident locations. This multi-functionality allows a single moving body to replace multiple security guards in various roles.
2Area of stationary object
If security guards are deployed to increase security coverage area, then monitoring capability improves, but labor costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms static security guard positions into dynamic moving bodies that can autonomously navigate and reposition themselves to cover different areas. This dynamic deployment allows the same number of moving bodies to cover much larger areas over time compared to static guard positions, significantly expanding security coverage without proportionally increasing the number of security personnel.
3Ease of manufacture
If only security guards are used for security monitoring, then implementation is simple, but security coverage and response time cannot be optimized
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the purely mechanical human security guard system with an integrated system that incorporates autonomous moving bodies equipped with cameras, sensors, and navigation systems. These moving bodies autonomously perform surveillance and can rapidly respond to detected abnormalities, significantly improving security system efficiency while maintaining reasonable implementation complexity through standardized platforms.

AI summary
A security system in a predetermined area is based on a cooperation of security guards and moving bodies. A time-dependent position of each moving body is predetermined. A security simulation system performs a simulation of the security system to search for an appropriate time-dependent position of each security guard. The security simulation system calculates a rushing time from when an abnormality is detected by a first moving body to when a first security guard arrives at a position of the first moving body, and calculates a security coverage area that can be monitored by the security guards and the moving bodies. An evaluation function increases as the rushing time becomes shorter and as the security coverage area becomes wider. The security simulation system determines the time-dependent position of each security guard such that a value of the evaluation function becomes a predetermined level or higher.
