A drone could be configured to be launched out of a window of a building, and to re-enter a
window for landing. This may require it to unfold and refold itself in flight, and/or turn
sideways, if the window is too narrow otherwise. It could use a launch and recovery apparatus
mounted inside the
window. If the window was equipped to open and close automatically,
that would be even better. Now you don't need to go outside to launch and recover your
drone.
Note: May not be legal in your jurisdiction, due to rules such as that you must have visual
contact with your drone at all times. :(

Prior art that reminded me to post this
Drone flaps

Completely unrelated prior art that I saw earlier today, but that didn't remind me of this, at least consciously, but did remind me of the word "defenestration", which enhanced this idea's title

I'm disappointed. I was expecting a drone capable of physically removing individuals from building via the nearest available window. |

A drone can be stored outdoors, just under the lower end of
the roof, where the roof protrudes from the top of the wall.
The drone can be mounted on a slide and the alarm can
release the drone from the (ski jumping) slide and disconnect
a wire that keeps the battery of the drone charged. |
