摘要: Apparatus and methods are described, including apparatus for operating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that includes an imaging device. The apparatus includes a touch screen and a processor. The processor is configured to (i) receive a gesture that is performed on the touch screen with respect to an image captured by the imaging device, (ii) estimate a distance from the UAV to a given point represented in the image, (iii) compute a scale factor that is based on the estimated distance, and (iv) communicate a control signal that causes the UAV to execute a flying maneuver that is suggested by the gesture and is scaled by the scale factor. Other embodiments are also described.

摘要: Apparatus for controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that includes an imaging device is described. The apparatus includes a touch screen and a processor, configured to (i) receive a gesture that is performed, on the touch screen, with respect to a first image acquired by the imaging device, the gesture indicating a requested change with respect to the first image, (ii) communicate, to the UAV, a first control signal that causes the UAV to begin executing a flying maneuver that is suggested by the gesture, (iii) identify a plurality of features in a subsequent image acquired by the imaging device, (iv) ascertain that respective positions of the features indicate that the flying maneuver has effected the requested change, and (v) in response to the ascertaining, communicate, to the UAV, a subsequent control signal that causes the UAV to stop execution of the flying maneuver. Other embodiments are also described.

摘要: Described embodiments include apparatus for operating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The apparatus includes a receiver, a transmitter, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, via the receiver, coordinates of a position sensor coupled to a portion of a crane, a configuration of the crane changing over time due at least to movement of the portion of the crane relative to a tower of the crane, to compute, in response to the received coordinates, a flight path that passes under a boom of the crane while circumventing the crane, and to cause the UAV to follow the computed flight path, by transmitting flight instructions, via the transmitter, to the UAV. Other embodiments are also described.

摘要: A method for autonomously operating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that includes one or more imaging devices is provided. The imaging devices are pointed away from a direction in which the UAV is flying, and subsequently, an upcoming portion of a current flight path of the UAV is imaged, using the imaging devices. In response to the imaging, an obstacle on the current flight path is detected, and an alternate flight path is planned in response thereto. The UAV is then flown along the alternate flight path, instead of the current flight path. Other embodiments are also described.
