    摘要: The present invention relates to a system and method for ground object manipulation using a drone (UAV). The drone is configured with the camera(s) facing downwards to capture a real-time video feed of a top view of an AOI, which is then transmitted to the display screen of the mobile device associated with a user. The video feed is displayed on the display screen, which facilitates the user to use a marker on the display screen to select a target 2D location (object) in the AOI. The user can then operate a trigger of the remote controller to start the movement of the drone. The system then determines an optimal target velocity command for the drone to reach the selected target location, and automatically maneuvers the drone to the target location at the target velocity, and converges the drone around the desired target. The vertical movement of the drone above the target location is then controlled using the controller. The drone includes a motorized arm to grab/release the target objects.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a method to augment pilot control of a drone, the method including receiving a planned flight route. Embodiments may also include receiving sensor information from an at least one environment sensor along the planned flight route. In some embodiments, the at least one environment sensor may be located at a predefined location. Embodiments may also include estimating a drone location from the sensor information. Embodiments may also include receiving a speed vector of the drone. Embodiments may also include comparing the drone location to an expected drone location along the planned flight route. Embodiments may also include deriving a flight control command and a speed vector command to return the drone to a point along the planned flight route.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a method for improving, or even optimizing, flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) including a payload, the method including receiving one or more human-initiated flight instructions. Embodiments may also include determining a UAV context based at least in part on Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) data from the UAV. Embodiments may also include receiving payload-identification data. Embodiments may also include accessing a laden-flight profile based at least in part on the payload-identification data. Embodiments may also include determining one or more laden-flight parameters. In some embodiments, the one or more laden-flight parameters may be based at least in part on the one or more human-initiated flight instructions, the UAV context, and the laden-flight profile.
