摘要： An equipment monitoring system includes an unmanned vehicle, an alarm circuit remote from the unmanned vehicle, and a vehicle control circuit remote from the unmanned vehicle. The unmanned vehicle can include a communications circuit and a flight controller. The alarm circuit detects a failure condition of a building component and outputs an indication of the failure condition. The vehicle control circuit receives the indication of the failure condition from the alarm circuit; generates, based on the indication of the failure condition, an equipment verification signal that includes an identifier of the building component, a position of the building component, and a test of the building component to be executed; and transmits the equipment verification signal to the flight controller of the unmanned vehicle via the communications circuit of the unmanned vehicle to cause the unmanned vehicle to execute the test of the building component.

摘要： A method and device for planning spraying operations, a control terminal and storage medium are provided. The method includes: obtaining and displaying a flight route of a UAV, and controlling the UAV to execute a spraying operation along the flight route, where the flight route includes a plurality of segments including spraying segments and non-spraying segments; obtaining an interruption position of an interruption segment; based on a position of the UAV, determining whether there exists a projection position within the first preset number of spraying segments that have not been executed after the interruption segment without determining whether there exists a projection position of the UAV within the non-spraying segments; and displaying indicator(s) to indicate the position of the return position(s) on the flight route. The present disclosure can meet the user's expectations and conserves electrical energy consumption, thereby improving the efficiency of executing spraying operations.

摘要： A method of discharging a battery assembly includes detecting, with aid of a timer, when the battery assembly is not in use for a threshold length of time, where the battery assembly is configured to power at least a part of a movable object. The method further includes initiating a controlled self-discharge of the battery assembly when the battery assembly is not in use for the threshold length of time; and during the controlled self-discharge of the battery assembly, in response to detecting that the battery assembly is activated or detecting that the movable object is powered on or detecting that current is flowing from the battery assembly, terminating the controlled self-discharge of the battery assembly regardless whether the battery assembly voltage drops to a threshold voltage value.

摘要： The disclosure describes an automated aerial vehicle (AAV) and system for automatically detecting a contact or an imminent contact between a propeller of the AAV and an object (e.g., human, pet, or other animal). When a contact or an imminent contact is detected, a safety profile may be executed to reduce or avoid any potential harm to the object and/or the AAV. For example, if a contact with a propeller of the AAV by an object is detected, the rotation of the propeller may be stopped to avoid harming the object. Likewise, an object detection component may be used to detect an object that is nearing a propeller, stop the rotation of the propeller, and/or navigate the AAV away from the detected object.

摘要： A seismic weight dropper arrangement for a drone. The arrangement comprises a winch assembly attachable to a drone and comprising an actuator and spool with a cable windable thereon. Arrangement also includes a seismic source assembly comprising a housing and a mass suspended within the housing via at least one resiliently elastic biasing element, such as a coil spring. The seismic source assembly is fast with the cable and the actuator configured selectively to eject the seismic source assembly from the drone under the influence of gravity. The resiliently elastic biasing element has a predetermined modulus of elasticity to facilitate the mass impacting the housing when the housing impacts a surface after such ejection from a predetermined height above the surface.
