A system receives images capturing a non-planar surface from different respective angles, where each of the images captures a section of an area on the non-planar surface, the area including textual or graphical information. The system stitches together the images to obtain a stitched image that captures an entirety of the area on the non-planar surface. The system processes the stitched image to extract the textual or graphical information from the area on the non-planar surface. The system then associates the extracted textual or graphical information with one or more information fields in a report template, and generates a report by populating the one or more information fields of the report template with corresponding associated information within the extracted textual or graphical information.

Techniques for an autonomous mobile unmanned machine such as an unmanned aerial vehicle or drone or a robot to access a closed door are described. The techniques include programming the autonomous mobile unmanned machine to pass through a particular location within a facility that has one or more doors, and sense by the autonomous mobile unmanned machines a beacon signal emanating from a beacon deployed in proximity to a first one of the one or more doors in the facility, by receiving the beacon signal by a receiver device on the autonomous mobile unmanned machines. The techniques send a message to either a server or an access control system when the autonomous mobile unmanned machines determines that it needs access through the door at the specified location identified by the beacon and receives a message from either the server or the access control system that the door has been unlocked.

Described are techniques that use an autonomous mobile unmanned machine that includes at least one sensor device suitable to verify an alarm condition. Upon assertion of an alarm condition message asserted as a result of a potential alarm condition existing within a facility, the machine receives a location of the alarm condition and is programmed with a route from a current location of the autonomous mobile unmanned machine to the location of the alarm condition. The at least one sensor device carried by the autonomous mobile unmanned machine collects sensor data at least at the location of the alarm condition and the machine sends to a system a message pertaining to status of the alarm condition.
