    Abstract: Generating a morphing sequence for an aerial show may include: receiving, at a computing device comprising a processor, first frame data defining a first location for each of a plurality of drones in a first image of the aerial show; receiving, at the computing device, second frame data defining a second location for each of the plurality of drones in a second image of the aerial show; and generating the morphing sequence, the morphing sequence defining a flightpath for each of the plurality of drones to transition from the first location associated with the first image to the second location associated with the second image.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for distributing a plurality of drones to form an aerial image. The systems and methods may include: receiving, at a computing device comprising a processor, location data and drone data; distributing, by the computing device, a plurality of drones based on the aspects of an aerial image such that, during flight, the plurality of drones form the aerial image; and exporting, by the computing device, coordinates for each of the plurality of drones. The location data may define aspects of the aerial image to be formed by the plurality of drones. The drone data may include a number of drones within the plurality of drones. The coordinate for each of the plurality of drones may define a location for a respective drone within the aerial image.

    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle comprises an image sensor, configured to detect electromagnetic radiation and to generate image sensor data representing the detected electromagnetic radiation; a filter, configured to pass image sensor data representing one or more first wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation and to block image sensor data representing one or more second wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation; and one or more processors configured to determine from the passed image sensor data an origin of the detected electromagnetic radiation; and control the unmanned aerial vehicle to travel toward the determined origin.

    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle includes one or more magnetometers, configured to detect a magnetic field and to output magnetometer data corresponding to a magnitude of the detected magnetic field; a position sensor, configured to detect a position of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to one or more reference points, and to output position sensor data representing the detected position; one or more processors, configured to control the unmanned aerial vehicle to rotate about its z-axis; receive magnetometer data comprising a plurality of z-axis directional measurements taken during the rotation about the z-axis; receive position sensor data and determine from at least the position sensor data a magnetic field inclination of the detected position; and determine a z-axis magnetometer correction value as a difference between the received magnetometer data for the z-axis and the determined magnetic field inclination.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus to create drone displays are disclosed. An example drone display design system includes an audience configuration definer to receive an input representing a configuration of an audience from a user, and a drone display designer to, by executing an instruction with a processor, design a drone display to present content to the audience based on the input.
