摘要: An unmanned aerial vehicle includes a fuselage and an arm coupled to the fuselage. The arm includes a first segment, a second segment, and a connecting assembly coupling and locking the first segment and the second segment to each other. The connecting assembly includes a first connecting member and a second connecting member. The first connecting member is rotatably coupled to one of the first segment or the second segment. The second connecting member is coupled to another one of the first segment or the second segment. The first connecting member is rotatable relative to the arm and engages with the second connecting member to lock the first segment and the second segment.

摘要: Autonomous airship fleet operation includes receiving a mission request. A fleet manager in response to receipt of a mission request, plans a mission having a corresponding mission path and corresponding mission tasks based on a vehicle occupancy map. The fleet manager selects one or more candidate vehicles for the mission based on a correlation of at least one vehicle capability to a capability requirement determined from the mission request. The fleet manager further coordinates operation of the selected vehicles for a duration of the mission request, thereby fulfilling the at least one mission objective of the mission request.

摘要: Systems and methods for authenticating a user include monitoring a monitored space for a condition to provide an interaction between a drone and an individual. In response to the condition to provide the interaction between the drone and the individual being satisfied, the drone may obtain a first set of sensor data corresponding to the individual. The first set of sensor data may indicate that the individual requires a service that requires authentication of the individual as a user of the service and that the individual is unable to provide a primary authentication response. The drone may then obtain a second set of sensor data corresponding to the individual unable to provide the primary authentication response. The drone authentication system then determines, based on the second set of sensor data and identity data that the individual corresponds to identity data of a user of the service and performs the service.

摘要: Disclosed herein is a modular aerial vehicle system having a fuselage module configured to couple with a plurality of lift generation modules. The modular aerial vehicle system may comprise a fuselage module and a lift generation module. The fuselage module can include a first attachment interface, an avionics system operatively coupled with a power unit (e.g., via an ESC), and a communications system operatively coupled with the flight controller. The lift generation module can include a second attachment interface and a plurality of propulsors. The fuselage module may be configured to removably couple with the lift generation module via the first and second attachment interfaces. The first and second attachment interfaces may comprise (1) a plurality of electrical contacts to facilitate electrical communication between the fuselage module and the lift generation module and/or (2) one or more retention devices to couple structurally the lift generation module with said fuselage module.

摘要: An aircraft includes an electric power source having a combustion engine and an electric generator. The electric generator is powered by the combustion engine. The aircraft also includes a propulsion assembly including a propulsor and an electric motor, the electric motor configured for rotating the propulsor. The aircraft also includes an electrical outlet configured for connection with an outside power sink. The electrical outlet and the propulsion assembly are selectively in electrical communication with the electric power source such that the electric power source selectively provides electrical power to one of the electrical outlet or the propulsion assembly.

摘要: A fact checking system utilizes social networking information and analyzes and determines the factual accuracy of information and/or characterizes the information by comparing the information with source information. The social networking fact checking system automatically monitors information, processes the information, fact checks the information and/or provides a status of the information, including automatically modifying a web page to include the fact check results. The fact checking system is able to be implemented utilizing a drone device. The drone device is able to be implemented in conjunction with a security system.

摘要: Aspects of the invention relate to a UAV (drone) data marketplace where requests for UAV services are matched with registered UAVs. Drone operators register in the marketplace drones in their fleet with their capabilities and requesters of drone services make their request in the marketplace. The requests can be a set of data to be collected (e.g., optical images, NIR data, temperatures, etc.) and/or actions to be performed (e.g., deploying spare machinery parts to a tractor in the field), a location from which that data is collected and/or location to which a delivery is to be made, a pipeline of analytics to be performed on the data (e.g., optical recognition, NDVI computation, fertilizer application recommendation), a timeframe in which to collect the data (e.g., “by next week”, “by the end of today”), and a market value for how much the Requester is willing to pay for that data or operation. The marketplace matches the drone service requests with drones registered in the marketplace capable of performing the requested service. The drone operator and the drone service requester form an agreement for a job to be performed.

摘要: Technologies for managing assets of a data center include a unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communicatively coupled to a remote computing device. The UAV is configured to navigate throughout a data center and capture data center mapping information during the navigation usable to generate a three-dimensional (3D) model of the data center. The UAV is further configured to transmit the captured data center mapping information to a remote computing device. Accordingly, the UAV can receive instructions from a remote computing device that define a type of task to be performed by the UAV in the data center and perform such a task (e.g., a data center map update task, an asset inventory task, a maintenance task, a visual inspection task, etc.) based on the received task instructions. Other embodiments are described and claimed herein.
