Abstract: A control system for an unmanned vehicle includes a control processing unit which receives input signals from one or more sensors and supplies output signals to one or more actuators. Processing modules are divided into a plurality of successively linked stages. In a first stage, multiple processing modules produce substantially equivalent payload data when operating correctly. Message cryptography units generate cryptographically signed messages containing the payload data. In a second stage, a voting cryptography unit receives and examines the cryptographically signed messages, and applies voting logic to derive a validated payload data for use by the respective processing module of the second stage.

Abstract: A communications infrastructure (RSU) 30 with its airspace controller 32 provides a geo-fencing system that is capable of adaptive and progressive levels of control authority over the unmanned aircraft system (UAS) e.g., drone 20. The communications infrastructure (RSU) 30 is able to uniquely identify the drone 20, take partial control over the drone 20 to prevent the drone 20 from approaching controlled airspace, take complete control over the drone 20 for the purpose of directing the drone 20 to a specific location via a specific route (i.e. a flight profile), and/or the disabling of the drone 20. The drone 20 includes flight control system 50, vehicle processing system (VPU) 54, and communications system (V2I system) 56. Various data objects are transmitted between the communications system (V2I system) 56 of the drone 20 and the communications infrastructure (RSU) 30. The drone 20 is configured to perform self-check, e.g., of its communications system (V2I system) 56, and to enter a fault mode of operation for overriding propulsion and directionality of the unmanned aerial vehicle during problematic conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of stabilizing mission equipment by a mission equipment stabilization system using an unmanned aerial system command and posture information, the method comprising the steps of: (a) by an input unit 100 of the mission equipment stabilization system, receiving and transmitting a roll or pitch posture command signal to an autopilot control loop 200 and a posture prediction unit 300 of the mission equipment stabilization system; (b) by the autopilot control loop 200, transmitting a command signal to a control surface so that the aerial system follows the command signal; (c) by the posture prediction unit 300, receiving the posture command signal, filtering a posture prediction through angular velocity limitation and time-delayed filtering, simulating/predicting a response from the autopilot control loop (200), and outputting a posture prediction signal; (d) by an Euler coordinate transformation unit 400, converting the posture prediction signal predicted by the posture prediction unit 200 into an azimuth command signal of the mission equipment; (e) by the differentiation filter 500, differentiating the azimuth command signal into an angular velocity command signal; (f) by the differentiation filter 500, removing noise from the differentiated angular velocity command signal; and (g) by the mission equipment 600, receiving the angular velocity command signal and stably doing a mission. With this, a high maneuver is effectively stabilized by grasping posture information of an aerial system.

Abstract: Consumption information associated with a user consuming video segments may be obtained. The consumption information may define user engagement during a video segment and/or user response to the video segment. Sets of flight control settings associated with capture of the video segments may be obtained. The flight control settings may define aspects of a flight control subsystem for the unmanned aerial vehicle and/or a sensor control subsystem for the unmanned aerial vehicle. The preferences for the flight control settings of the unmanned aerial vehicle may be determined based upon the first set and the second set of flight control settings. Instructions may be transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle. The instructions may include the determined preferences for the flight control settings and being configured to cause the unmanned aerial vehicle to adjust the flight control settings to the determined preferences.

Abstract: Aspects include a system for transferring a payload between drones. The system includes a first aerial drone having a first transfer member and a first controller. The first controller including a processor configured to change a first altitude and first orientation of the first aerial drone. A second aerial drone is provided having a second transfer member and a second controller, the second transfer member having a cone member on one end, the second transfer member being configured to receive the payload. The second controller including a processor configured to change a second altitude and a second orientation of the second aerial drone. The controllers cooperate to dispose the first transfer member within the cone member and transfer the payload from the first aerial drone to the second aerial drone.

Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product ameliorates mosquito populations. A flying drone is deployed over an area. Sensor readings that identify a presence of water in the area are received, and one or more processors determine a confidence level L that the water in the area is stagnant water. The flying drone is then directed to perform an amelioration action against the mosquito larvae based a value of the determined confidence level L.
