Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to deliver merchandise to landing locations. In some embodiments, there is a provided a system including: a remote navigational control system operable by a human pilot to control a flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with the UAV including: a two-way communication unit; a sensor configured to capture images; and a control circuit. The UAV control circuit is configured to: autonomously navigate the UAV along a first flight path to a navigational waypoint according to autonomous operation; communicate with the control system when the UAV arrives at the navigational waypoint; await instructions from the control system for landing the UAV; transmit images of the landing location to the control system; and guide the UAV along a second flight path to the landing location based on human pilot navigation instructions.

Abstract: A plurality of mobile robots provide a radio coverage area of a wireless communication network. Each mobile robot comprises a radio base station of the wireless communication network. A mobile robot of the plurality of mobile robots moves to a geographical position to deploy as part of a daisy chain loop of the mobile robots upon receiving instruction from a maintenance base. Upon receiving further instruction from the maintenance base, the mobile robot moves to a further geographical position as part of a circular shift operation performed by the mobile robots deployed to the daisy chain loop to maintain the radio coverage area and send a further mobile robot of the mobile robots deployed to the daisy chain loop to the maintenance base.

Abstract: Methods and systems for autonomous generation of shortest lateral paths for unmanned aerial systems are described. An example system includes memory storing code and at least one processor to execute the code to cause the at least one processor to access an initial scenario including a source point, a target point, and a no flight zone, determine a computation time for identifying a lateral path for an aircraft to traverse that avoids the no flight zone, determine whether the determined computation time satisfies a threshold of a reference computation time, change the first number of vertices to a second number of vertices when the reference computation time is not satisfied, determine a buffer area surrounding the no flight zone, construct a visibility graph including lateral paths, and identify one of the lateral paths as being shorter than others of the lateral paths.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for an automatically deployed wireless network. According to one embodiment, an access point controller (AC) determines the existence of a network anomaly at a position of a wireless network that is managed by the AC. Responsive thereto, the AC causes an unmanned vehicle that carries a movable access point (AP) to carry the movable AP to the position or proximate thereto and causes the movable AP to provide wireless network service to an area encompassing the position by sending a dispatch command to the unmanned vehicle. The dispatch command instructs the unmanned vehicle to move to the position or proximate thereto.

Abstract: A drone aircraft for personal assistance or protection. When a driver's car is located in a parking lot at night, the driver can summon a drone stored in the vehicle which flies to the driver and leads the driver to the vehicle by projecting a spot of light onto the ground. The drone makes a video recording of events occurring at this time and transmits the recording to a remote storage location.
