Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) return method and apparatus and a UAV. The method includes: performing real-time fusion to generate velocity information of the UAV; determining, through integrating the velocity information, displacement information of a current location of the UAV relative to a takeoff location; determining a return starting point location of the UAV according to the displacement information; obtaining a return instruction, and determining a return mode; and controlling, according to the return mode, the UAV to return from the return starting point location to the takeoff location. In the foregoing manner, the present invention resolves the technical problem of poor accuracy that a current UAV returns by relying on GPS location information, and improves the returning accuracy of the UAV.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle safety protection technologies, and in particular, to an unmanned aerial vehicle safety protection method and apparatus and an unmanned aerial vehicle. The method includes: obtaining ultrasonic information and a flight status of an unmanned aerial vehicle, where the flight status includes a normal flight state and a descending state; and performing safety protection on the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the ultrasonic information and the flight status. The implementation can reduce an occurrence probability that an unmanned aerial vehicle crashes at a high altitude when ultrasound encounters abnormalities to get out of control at the high altitude and fail to descend, rise, move to the left or move to the right and land without slowing down to violently hit the ground, so that the safety of the unmanned aerial vehicle is enhanced, and user experience is improved.
