Abstract

Some embodiments include an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) copter for consumer photography or videography. The UAV copter can determine a first elevation of the UAV copter and a second elevation of an operator device. The UAV copter can adjust the first elevation by controlling thrust power of one or more propeller drivers to maintain a preset elevation difference between the first elevation and the second elevation. The UAV copter can locate a target subject relative to the UAV copter. The UAV copter can adjust at least one of the propeller drivers to point a first camera of the UAV copter at the operator device. In some embodiments, in response to detecting that the UAV copter has been thrown, the UAV copter can provide power adjustments for propeller drivers of the UAV copter to have the UAV copter reach a predetermined elevation above an operator device.

Description

technical field

[0001] At least one embodiment of the present disclosure relates generally to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and in particular to consumer UAV helicopters. Background technique

[0002] UAVs for everyday consumption, and especially UAV helicopters, have traditionally been limited to entertainment as toys or as hobbyist collectible items. More recently, however, UAV helicopters have been used for personal photography and videography. UAV helicopters can be equipped with portable power sources and image capture devices, such as cameras or other types of sensors. For example, a photographer or videographer could use a UAV helicopter to take pictures or film athletes participating in an outdoor event when there are no overhead obstacles. UAV helicopters can also be used to document special occasions such as weddings, proposals, and other events that may take place in open spaces. Photo and video applications require highly portable instruments. However, con...
