Abstract: A return-to-home command for securing an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from flying away. Flight plan updates that may be uploaded to the UAV can be interrupted at any time by uploading a modified flight plan or by instructing the UAV to pause while manual flight commands are given. The modifications to the original flight plan always ensure that a return-to-home step is present in the instructions on board the UAV, so that if the radio communications link between the remote controller and the UAV is lost, the UAV will fly home.

Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for unmanned aerial vehicle visual line of sight flight operations. A UAV computer system may be configured to ensure the UAV is operating in visual line of sight of one or more ground operators. The UAV may confirm that it has a visual line of sight with the one or more user devices, such as a ground control station, or the UAV may ensure that the UAV does not fly behind or below a structure such that the ground operator would not be able to visually spot the UAV. The UAV computer system may be configured in such a way that UAV operation will maintain the UAV in visual line of sight of a base location.

Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to an unmanned vehicle for use with a companion unmanned vehicle. The unmanned vehicle can include a satellite navigation unit that is configured to receive a satellite signal indicative of a current position of the unmanned vehicle. The unmanned vehicle can also include an inertial navigation unit that is configured to determine the current position of the unmanned vehicle. The unmanned vehicle can also include a control unit disposed in communication with the satellite navigation unit and the inertial navigation unit. The control unit is configured to determine a planned position of the unmanned vehicle based on the planned path, compare the current position determined by the inertial navigation unit with the planned position based on the planned path, and control the movement of the unmanned vehicle based on at least the comparison between the current position and the planned position.

Abstract: An unmanned vehicle determines how to perform a task based at least in part on a message received from another unmanned vehicle. At a later time, the unmanned vehicle detects that the other unmanned vehicle has become untrusted. The unmanned vehicle recalculates how to perform the task such that the recalculation is independent of any messages from the other unmanned vehicle. The unmanned vehicle may also transmit messages to other unmanned vehicles to provide notification of untrustworthiness of the other unmanned vehicle.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for providing flight response to flight-restricted regions. The location of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) may be compared with a location of a flight-restricted region. If needed a flight-response measure may be taken by the UAV to prevent the UAV from flying in a no-fly zone. Different flight-response measures may be taken based on the distance between the UAV and the flight-restricted region and the rules of a jurisdiction within which the UAV falls.

Abstract: Various arrangements are provided for using an unmanned aerial vehicle with a home automation system. The home automation host system may determine that a home automation event has occurred. The system may determine to perform unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) surveillance of the home in response to the home automation event. Deployment of a UAV may be triggered in response to determining to perform the UAV surveillance of the home. Video may then captured by the UAV of a portion of the home, possibly corresponding to the location of the home automation event. The video captured by the UAV of the portion of the home in association with an indication of the home automation event that triggered deployment of the UAV may be recorded.
