Method and device for controlling an aircraft

Abstract

The invention discloses an aircraft control method and device, and the method and device are used to track a target object under the condition that a user needs not to control an aircraft. In the aircraft control method, face detection is carried out on images, collected by an aircraft camera in real time, of the target object to obtain a first face position and a second face position, and the second face position is obtained by carrying out face detection on the images before that the first face position is obtained; whether the target object moves is determined according to the first face position and the second face position; when it is determined that the target object moves, the moving direction of the target object is obtained according to the first face position and the second face position, and the moving distance of the target object is obtained according to the first face position and relative position information of the aircraft and the target object; and according to the moving direction and moving distance, a flight control command is sent to the aircraft, so that the aircraft adjusts the flight attitude according to the flight control command.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aircraft, in particular to an aircraft control method and device. Background technique [0002] Unmanned aircraft is referred to as aircraft for short. Aircraft has many applications in national economy and military affairs. At present, aircraft has been widely used in aerial photography, power inspection, environmental monitoring, forest fire prevention, disaster inspection, terrorism and lifesaving, military reconnaissance, In the field of battlefield assessment and other fields, the aircraft is an unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and its own program control device. There is no cockpit on board, but it is equipped with autopilot, program control device, information collection device and other equipment. The remote control station personnel track, locate, remote control, telemetry and digital transmission through radar and other equipment. [0003] In the prior art,...

Problems solved by technology

The method of manually controlling the remote control requires the user to pay attention to the flight trajectory of the aircraft at all times in order to achieve the goal of aiming at the person. This method requires a dedicated operator. If you want to complete the tracking of the user himself, it will be more difficult to operate, and it is not conducive to the user to complete the task at the same time. other tasks, such as taking selfies

The method of automatic tracking by sending GPS positioning information to the aircraft through the handheld device, the main disadvantage is that the error of the GPS signal is very large, and some positions will not receive the GPS signal, so it is impossible for the aircraft to accurately track the target.
