Techniques are described for an autonomous asset management system that integrates autonomous devices, such as drone devices and other robotic devices, with a home security system of a property to enable management, monitoring, and/or tracking of various assets located within the property. In some implementations, an indication of an asset associated with a property is obtained by an autonomous device. Sensor data collected by one or more sensors of the property is obtained by the autonomous device based on the indication of the asset. A present status of the asset is determined by the autonomous device based on the sensor data. A determination that the present status of the asset does not correspond to an expected status of the asset is made by the autonomous device. In response, the autonomous device navigates to the particular location of the property.

Monitoring system alert technology, in which monitoring system data is accessed from a monitoring system that is located in a property of a user and the monitoring system data is analyzed against one or more rules that define alerts provided for the monitoring system. Based on the analysis, a determination is made that an alert for the monitoring system is needed and conditions for providing the alert are accessed. Location of a mobile device of a user associated with the monitoring system and timing related to providing the alert are monitored. The monitored location of the mobile device and the monitored timing are analyzed with respect to the accessed conditions. Based on the analysis, a determination is made that the accessed conditions for providing the alert are met and the alert is output at the mobile device.

A circuit is described for powering a video doorbell in signal communication with a chime that outputs audio. The circuit includes a switch coupled to a set of input power wires that supply power to the circuit from a source. The switch is operable to switch between: i) a first path of the circuit that supplies power to the video doorbell using the input power wires and ii) a second path of the circuit that supplies power to the chime using the input power wires. The circuit includes a controller that controls the switch to iteratively switch between the first path and the second path based on a timing metric. In response to detection of an object by the video doorbell, the iterative switching between the first path and the second path concurrently powers the video doorbell and the chime without relying on battery power at the video doorbell.
