Unified control of multifunctional UAV swarms

Abstract

The invention discloses a uniformly controlled multifunctional unmanned aerial vehicle group. The unmanned aerial vehicle group is provided with a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles, and is characterized in that the unmanned aerial vehicles carry different working devices, so that different unmanned aerial vehicles can be selected when different tasks are executed. Each unmanned aerial vehicle carries a small number of working devices and is low in cost, so that the economic loss is within a controllable range even if the unmanned aerial vehicle runs into an accident and is damaged. In addition, data information is transferred through a ZigBee wireless module, and a plurality of ZigBee wireless modules form a network. The plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles are controlled by using a single device through a data transmission module, so that the manpower and material resource cost brought about by controlling a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a system of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles with multiple functions, especially a group of multifunctional unmanned aerial vehicles under unified control. Background technique [0002] With the development of sensors and intelligent hardware technology, drone control technology has developed rapidly in recent years, and the intelligent control methods of drones are becoming more and more diverse. At present, there are three main ways to control UAVs: one is to control the UAV through the remote control. Higher and more remote control costs and labor costs when the number of UAVs is large; the second is to control the UAVs through the UAV ground station control software installed on the computer, which requires a computer, mouse and keyboard during operation Such facilities are large in size, inconvenient to move, and when there are a large number of UAVs to be controlle...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, there are three main ways to control UAVs: one is to control the UAV through the remote control. Higher and more remote control costs and labor costs when the number of UAVs is large; the second is to control the UAVs through the UAV ground station control software installed on the computer, which requires a computer, mouse and keyboard during operation Such facilities are large in size, inconvenient to move, and when there are a large number of UAVs to be controlled, the processor performance requirements of the computer will also increase accordingly; the third method is to realize the control of UAVs through smart mobile terminals , but this method mostly requires the support of the network, and cannot be used in areas with poor network coverage

[0003] To sum up, the UAV control methods in the prior art have the problems of high cost, poor maneuverability and limited operating range

[0004] In addition, in actual work, cases of damage to UAVs often occur, especially when operating in areas with harsh environments, the safety of UAVs is generally difficult to guarantee; the tasks that UAVs are required to perform are also diverse Yes, from the perspective of equipment cost, if only to measure the temperature information in a certain area, the UAV only needs to carry a temperature sensor, and the equipment cost will be very low. Even if it is damaged or lost, the loss is still affordable. If It is necessary to obtain the image information of a certain area, and then send a more expensive drone with a camera device to perform tasks. Therefore, if multiple sensors are distributed on different drones, they are controlled separately and executed separately. Different tasks can greatly reduce the cost and reduce the economic loss suffered when the UAV is damaged, but there is no relevant record in the existing technology, and the technical problems it faces mainly include the difficulty of operating and controlling multiple UAVs , according to the current UAV control system and method, multiple UAVs cannot be controlled at the same time
