Abstract

A system may include a plurality of camera devices configured to acquire image data associated with a property. The system may also include a processor that receives the image data from the plurality of camera devices, receives insurance policy data associated with the property from a database, and adjusts one or more terms of the insurance policy data based on the image data.

Claims (25)

1. A system, comprising:

a plurality of camera devices configured to acquire image data associated with a property;

a sensor configured to acquire sensor data associated with an interior portion of a structure on the property, wherein the sensor is one of a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a motion sensor, a smoke detector, a water pressure sensor, a gas detection sensor, a water flow sensor, a water detection sensor, a leak detection sensor, a wind speed sensor, an air pressure sensor, an electrical system sensor, a structural sensor, or an environmental sensor; and

a processor configured to:

receive the image data from the plurality of camera devices;

receive the sensor data from the sensor;

receive insurance policy data associated with the property from a database;

analyze the image data and the insurance policy data by comparing the image data with at least one previous image of the property;

adjust one or more terms of the insurance policy data using an object recognition technique to determine an updated value for the property based on a comparison between a first set of objects depicted in the image data and a second set of objects depicted in the at least one previous image;

identify a location of damage in an area of the property based on a comparison between the image data with the at least one previous image and based on the sensor data, wherein the area of the property corresponds to the interior portion of the structure on the property;

identify a type of damage associated with the area of the property based on the comparison between the image data and the at least one previous image and based on the sensor data;

determine whether an object of the first set of objects is located within the area of the property, wherein the object corresponds to an item of personal property; and

request a repair quote for the object in response to the location of damage being in the area of the property, the type of damage, and determining that the object is located within the area.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

identify a qualification deductible based the comparison and the insurance policy data, wherein the qualification deductible corresponds to a deductible that the insurance policy data is qualified to receive; and

adjust the one or more terms of the insurance policy data based on the qualification deductible.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust a frequency at which the plurality of camera devices acquire the image data based on analyzing the image data.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to send a notification indicative of the one or more terms to a computing device associated with the property.

5. The system of claim 1 , comprising a computing device configured to communicate the image data to the processor, wherein the computing device is separate from the processor.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more terms comprise a premium deductible, a coverage amount, a coverage type, or any combination thereof.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image data is indicative of one or more risks associated with the property, a detection of a structural alteration of the property, or any combination thereof.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image data comprises at least one thermal image associated with the property.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

determine a number of occupants within the property based on an identification of one or more individuals depicted in the image data and based on one or more time durations in which the one or more individuals are within the property; and

adjust one or more terms of the insurance policy data based on an additional comparison between the number of occupants and a threshold number of occupants.
