    Abstract: A system for landing a mobile platform, such as an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (“UAV”) and methods for making and using the same. The system can land the UAV by applying a magnetic levitation force upon the UAV and adjusting the applied magnetic levitation force. The system can initiate a landing process to a designated docking station and can guide the UAV to an adjacency of the designated docking station. Once the UAV has entered the adjacency, the magnetic levitation forces can take control of the landing process. During the landing process, certain magnetic sensitive devices installed on the UAV and/or on the designated docking station can be protected by turning them off or by shielding them. The system overcomes disadvantages of currently-available landing systems by restricting a size and weight of the landing arrangements, as well as, avoiding potential damage to the UAV and the designated docking station.

    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a central body having a first side and a second side opposite to the first side, and a first arm and a second arm extendable from the central body and respectively disposed on the first side and the second side. Each arm of the first arm and the second arm includes a plurality of sections and holds a set of rotor blades via a rotor shaft, and the plurality of sections includes a first section and a second section rotatably connected to the first section. The each arm of the first arm and the second arm is configured to transform between a flight configuration in which the second section of the each arm is extended away from the central body and a compact configuration in which the plurality of sections of the each arm are located at a corresponding side of the central body.

    Abstract: A battery replacement device including a first linear motion mechanism, a second linear motion mechanism mounted on the first linear motion mechanism, a third linear motion mechanism mounted on the second linear motion mechanism, and a clamp mechanism mounted on one of the first, second, and third linear motion mechanisms. Each of the first, second, and third linear motion mechanisms includes a carrying member and a driving member configured to drive the carrying member to move translationally in one of a first axis direction, a second axis direction, and a third axis direction that build a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. A coordinate position of the clamp mechanism in the three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system is adjusted by the first driving member, the second driving member, and the third driving member.

    Abstract: A method for operating a vehicle chassis includes providing the vehicle chassis including a main body and at least one compartment arranged on the vehicle chassis, selectively receiving one or more components in the compartment, and effecting an operational state of a vehicle comprising the vehicle chassis based on a type of at least one of the one or more components that are selectively received in the compartment. The one or more components is selected from a plurality of components of different types.
