Unmanned aerial vehicle control method and unmanned aerial vehicle control device

Abstract

The invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) control method and a UAV control device. The method comprises the steps as follows: when a UAV is in a first flight state, acquiring meteorological data of the current location of the UAV, wherein the first flight state is a state showing that the UAV is flying stably or is about to take off; determining the current dangerous flight level of the UAV according to the acquired meteorological data, wherein the dangerous flight level represents the level of danger caused by different weather conditions to the flight of the UAV; and if the dangerous flight level is a first preset level, switching the UAV to a second flight state, wherein the first preset level is a level at which the UAV is unable to fly safely, and the second flight state is a state showing that the UAV flies under emergency or stops flying. According to the technical scheme, a UAV can acquire meteorological data automatically and in real time and perform emergency treatment, so physical damage to the UAV caused by dangerous weather is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of aircraft, in particular to a method and device for controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] Unmanned aircraft, referred to as "UAV", is an unmanned aircraft operated by radio remote control equipment and self-contained program control device. It is widely used in scientific detection and danger monitoring and other fields. [0003] In related technologies, if the UAV has already set the flight route before performing the flight mission, if it encounters an emergency during the flight, such as encountering dangerous weather, it cannot return in time, and human operation is required to complete the flight during the flight. Returning or landing in an emergency, which increases the processing time for the drone to respond to emergency situations, and if the drone does not return or land in time, dangerous weather may cause physical damage to the drone.
