Abstract:
A vehicle control system and related sub-components together provide an operator with a plurality of specific modes of operation. The various modes of operation incorporate different levels of autonomous control. Through a control user interface, an operator can move between certain modes of control even after vehicle deployment. Specialized autopilot system components and methods are employed to ensure smooth transitions between control modes. Empowered by the multi-modal control system, an operator can manage multiple vehicles simultaneously.
