    Abstract: A modeling method using digital processing of a three-dimensional environment to establish pathways for unmanned aerial devices which are optimized according to different priorities, the method being characterized in that it comprises the following digital processing steps: (a) providing a three-dimensional model of volumes (PEXi) wherein flight is prohibited, (b) subdividing the model into individual elements (PVk), (c) determining a center (Pk) for each individual element, (d) establishing and memorizing a graph, the nodes (Pk, Ik) of which are formed by at least one portion of the centers, and the branches of which are weighted by the distances between the nodes and by at least one weighting associated with a given priority. A method is also proposed for determining, using an unmanned aerial device, a path between two points in a three-dimensional space modeled by such a graph, and steering methods using such a determination.

    Abstract: A system for transmitting commands and a video stream between a remote controlled machine such as a drone and a ground station comprises a two-way link between the machine and ground station, at least partially implementing a cellular communication network, said two-way link being provided by means of a cellular modem on the machine side and conveying a compressed video stream produced by a camera and a video encoding module, and information belonging to a group comprising movement control commands and flight data or operating characteristics of the remote controlled machine, the system further comprising means for managing the two-way link capable of ensuring said link is maintained, taking into account the variability in topology and performances of the link resulting from the implementation of the cellular communication network. Application to long-range drones.
