Flight assisting system and method of unmanned aerial vehicle

Abstract

The invention discloses a flight assisting system and method of an unmanned aerial vehicle and belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles. The system comprises a remote control unit, a mobile terminal and a state measuring sensor, wherein the state measuring sensor is used for measuring the position information and the flight state information of the unmanned aerial vehicle; the mobile terminal is used for obtaining position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the observation position according to the position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle and observation position information and outputting the flight state information of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the position information relative to the observation position; the remote control unit is used for controlling flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle. According to the provided system and method, mastering of the flight position and the flight state of the unmanned aerial vehicle assists an operator in controlling the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, blind flight and lost flight are avoided, and meanwhile, the flight experience of the operator is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle, in particular to a flight assistance system and method for an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (such as fixed-wing aircraft, rotorcraft including helicopters), motor vehicles, submarines or ships, and satellites, space stations, or spacecraft have been widely used, such as in the fields of detection and search and rescue. The manipulation of these moving bodies is usually realized by the user through a remote control device. [0003] A remotely piloted aircraft, submarine, or motorized vehicle may carry a carrier, such as a carrier device carrying a camera or a light. For example, a remote-controlled aircraft can be equipped with a camera for aerial photography. [0004] When the operator is operating a moving body, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle, since the unmanned aerial vehicle is generally small in size, it is difficult to see ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] When the operator is operating a moving body, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle, since the unmanned aerial vehicle is generally small in size, it is difficult to see clearly with the naked eye when flying far away (such as four to five hundred meters). It is difficult for the operator to observe the heading angle of the UAV, which is equivalent to blind flying. If there is no auxiliary means of flight, the UAV will easily lose its flight.

In addition, if you use the FPV (First Person View) mode to fly, if you focus too much on the display screen, you may end up not knowing the current position of the UAV, leading to disorientation or even flying, and while watching the FPV , while paying attention to the position of the UAV, it will greatly reduce the user experience
