Abstract: The present invention discloses a multilayer system utilizing a trusted execution environment for creating isolated environments to implement an operating system for commercial drones with increased security. The trusted execution environment creates an isolated environment that runs parallel with the operating system. The utilization of the trusted execution environment as the three-layer system is segmented into three subsystems, wherein each subsystem provides a separate functionality and helps in controlling the flight of the drone.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for using a mobile drone delivery device. The mobile drone delivery device determines a general location thereof to be provided to a drone. The drone then uses that general location to approach a vicinity of the mobile drone delivery device. Each of the drone and the mobile drone delivery device then communicates with each other to determine a precise location such that the drone may land on the mobile drone delivery device.

Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for a vehicle assist drone. The vehicle assist drone can be operated in different modes. For example, the vehicle assist drone can be deployed in a user of an AV service assist mode, a clear occlusion mode, refined routing mode, a security mode, a search and rescue mode (e.g., search for missing child mode), or some other mode. In addition, the vehicle assist drone can be used to supplement a vehicle's sensors. For example, supplementary sensor data from the vehicle assist drone can be used in place of the vehicle's sensors or combined with sensor data from the onboard sensors of the vehicle to supplement the vehicle's sensors.

Abstract: In some implementations, a device may receive spatial data corresponding to an interior of a building and objects located in the interior of the building. The device may generate a digital map of the interior of the building based on the spatial data. The device may generate a geographic coordinate map of the interior of the building. The device may receive, from a sensor mounted on an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV), sensor data indicating three-dimensional geographic points. The device may compare the sensor data to the geographic coordinate map to localize the UAV on the geographic coordinate map. The device may generate coordinate data indicating geographic coordinates associated with the geographic coordinate map and formatted in a global positioning system coordinate format and a National Marine Electronics Association format. The device may transmit, to a controller of the UAV, at least a subset of the coordinate data.

Abstract: Systems, computer readable medium and methods for navigation correction for excessive wind in an autonomous drone are disclosed. Excessive winds can be a particular problem for small autonomous drones as safety and retrieval of the autonomous drones is important and the autonomous drones often have limited thrust and batteries. Autonomous drones are disclosed that detect and correct flight plans when excessive winds are detected. The autonomous drone determines based on the severity of the excessive winds whether to return to a home position which is typically a position of a user of the autonomous drone or to land in place. If the excessive winds subside, then the autonomous drone returns to its original flight plan at the point where the autonomous drone was blown off course by the excessive winds. The autonomous drone detects excessive winds either directly by sensor data or inferentially by unanticipated movement of the autonomous drone.

Abstract: The present invention includes a drone system and kit with a modular hold. The drone, or its hold, can low-mount antennae such that the drone system lands on the antennae (or booms dimensioned to be similar thereto). Because the holds are dimensionally similar, multiple holds can be prepared, each with their own specific electronic payload, for a quick change that results in efficient utilization of proceeds.

Abstract: A near-field sensing information transmission and pairing system for air-land unmanned vehicles and a method thereof are disclosed. The unmanned aviation vehicle is driven to move along a forward route of an unmanned ground vehicle in advance, and continuously senses whether an obstacle or a traffic control appears in the forward route; when sensing the presence of the obstacle or the traffic control feature, the unmanned aviation vehicle generates and transmits a re-routing signal to the unmanned ground vehicle, an alternative route is calculated to replace the original forward route based on map information, a current coordinate, an obstacle coordinate and a destination coordinate, so as to increase a reaction time of the unmanned ground vehicle, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving immediacy of the unmanned ground vehicle to avoid a roadblock.

Abstract: Using battery monitoring and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) management, a method and system provide persistent airborne surveillance for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems supported by UAVs within an airborne surveillance pattern (ASP). In one embodiment, a UAV operating in the ASP with degraded battery charge is autonomously swapped with a UAV having a fully-charged battery to provide persistent aerial surveillance for an extended duration over that of a single UAV.
