摘要： Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for ground control point assignment and determination. One of the methods includes receiving information describing a flight plan for the UAV to implement, the flight plan identifying one or more waypoints associated with geographic locations assigned as ground control points. A first waypoint identified in the flight plan is traveled to, and an action to designate a surface at the associated geographic location is designated as a ground control point. Location information associated with the designated surface is stored. The stored location information is provided to an outside system for storage.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of aircrafts and provide an aircraft control method and a flight control system. The method is applicable to an aircraft and includes: connecting a remote control to a master terminal; connecting the master terminal to at least one slave terminal, so that each of the at least one slave terminal is connected to the master terminal; determining that the remote control has been connected to the aircraft; and controlling, by the remote control, the aircraft according to control instructions transmitted by the master terminal and/or the at least one slave terminal. By means of the method, providing each terminal with a remote control can be avoided, thereby reducing the burden of holding remote controls and reducing costs.

摘要： A mobile unit control unit causes a communication unit to transmit user setting information supplied from an input unit and control data for controlling a mobile unit. A display control unit generates display data corresponding to the human flow data in a human flow data DB, and outputs the generated display data to a display unit. The communication unit transmits control data, measurement area information, and landing area information to the mobile unit, and receives human flow data from the mobile unit and supplies the human flow data to a control unit. The input unit sets setting information relating to human flow data measurement, in response to a user operation. The display unit performs display corresponding to the display data generated by the display control unit. The present disclosure can be applied to a human flow measurement system including a mobile unit and a terminal, for example.

摘要： The embodiments are a landing control method, an aircraft, and a storage medium. The method is applied to the aircraft, and includes: the current frame template image is subjected to image feature extraction, and the extracted image features are used to train the position filter and the scale filter of the first template image; the position information of the first template image in the next frame image is predicted by using the position filter and the scale filter; and the landing of the aircraft is corrected by using the position information, such that the aircraft can dynamically track the preset takeoff and landing point for landing, so as to realize the accurate landing of the aircraft.

摘要： Enclosures for facilitating activities in space, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed. A representative system includes a spacecraft having an enclosed interior volume (which can be formed by an inflatable membrane) and one or more unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) carried by the spacecraft and positioned to deploy into the enclosed interior volume. The system can include a remote-control system to control the one or more UAVs from a terrestrial location while the spacecraft is in space. A wireless charging system can provide electrical power to the one or more UAVs. A representative method includes configuring one or more controllers to launch a first spacecraft to a first orbit, launch a second spacecraft to a second orbit, move the first spacecraft to the second orbit, dock the first spacecraft with the second spacecraft, and broadcast an event within an interior volume of the first spacecraft to a terrestrial location.

摘要： A method for controlling a UAV includes: receiving a takeoff control command, where the takeoff control command is used to control the UAV to take off; in response to the takeoff control command, when the UAV is not equipped with the safety protection device, prohibiting the UAV from taking off, and/or when the UAV is equipped with the safety protection device, controlling the UAV to take off. This method enhances the safety and usability of the UAV.
