    摘要: Controlling aircraft traffic in an aerial network is described. A controller system identifies a departure site, an arrival site, a departure time interval, and an arrival time interval. Based on the on the departure site, the arrival site, and the departure time interval, the controller system generates a spatiotemporal region. A spatiotemporal region defines a three-dimensional perimeter that moves in time along a flightpath from the departure site to the arrival site. An aircraft is assigned to the spatiotemporal region and instructed to remain within perimeter of the spatiotemporal region as the aircraft travels from the departure site to the arrival site. The controller system monitors locations of the aircraft over time relative to the perimeter of the spatiotemporal region. If the aircraft deviates from the spatiotemporal region, the controller may transmit control instructions to the aircraft to return to the spatiotemporal region.

    摘要: A system and a method are disclosed for a vehicle control and interface system configured to facilitate control of different vehicles through universal mechanisms. The vehicle control and interface system can be integrated with different types of vehicles (e.g., rotorcraft, fixed-wing aircraft, motor vehicles, watercraft, etc.) in order to facilitate operation of the different vehicles using universal vehicle control inputs. In particular, the vehicle control and interface system converts universal vehicle control inputs describing a requested trajectory of a vehicle received from one or more universal vehicle control interfaces into commands for specific actuators of the vehicle configured to adjust a current trajectory of the vehicle to the requested trajectory. In order to convert the universal vehicle control inputs to actuator commands the vehicle control and interface system processes the universal vehicle control inputs using a universal vehicle control router.

    摘要: A method for providing medical services to a patient, including: receiving a medical service request associated with a patient location; selecting an aircraft, located at an initial location, from a plurality of aircraft based on the patient location and the initial location; determining a flight plan for flying the aircraft to a region containing the patient location; at a sensor of the aircraft, sampling a first set of flight data; at a processor of the aircraft, autonomously controlling the aircraft to fly based on the flight plan and the set of flight data; selecting a landing location within the region; and landing the aircraft at the landing location, including: sampling a set of landing location data; determining a safety status of the landing location based on the set of landing location data; outputting a landing warning observable at the landing location; at the sensor, sampling a second set of flight data; and in response to determining the safety status and outputting the landing warning, autonomously controlling the aircraft to land at the landing location based on the second set of flight data.

    摘要: Embodiments relate to an aircraft control router for an aircraft. The aircraft control router may include a command processing module, sensor validation module, aircraft state estimation module, and control laws module. The command processing module may be configured to generate aircraft trajectory values based on received aircraft control inputs. The sensor validation module may be configured to validate sensor signals generated by sensors of the aircraft. The aircraft state estimation module may be configured to determine an estimated aircraft state of the aircraft based on the validated sensor signals. The control laws module may be configured to generate actuator commands for actuators of the aircraft to adjust control surfaces of the aircraft, where the generated actuator commands are based on aircraft trajectory values, validated sensor signals, and an estimated aircraft state. The aircraft control router may transmit the generated actuator commands to actuators of the aircraft.
