Problems solved by technology

[0004] On the other hand, there are cases where it is difficult to say that the consideration of safety is sufficient for autonomous flying drones for agricultural chemical dissemination.
Since the weight of a drone loaded with medicine is several tens of kilograms, it may cause serious consequences in the event of an accident such as falling on a person
In addition, as a rule, since the operator of the UAV is not a professional, mechanisms to prevent misuse are required, but this is not well taken into account
So far, although there are safety technologies for unmanned aerial vehicles (for example, Patent Document 2) on the premise of human operation, there is no such thing as an autonomous flying unmanned aerial vehicle for dealing with the spraying of chemicals for agricultural use.

[0092] Such as Figure 6 As shown, the unmanned aerial vehicle 100 involved in the present invention has a receiving unit 22 capable of receiving emergency action instructions, a flight control unit 23 that controls the flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle 100 based on the emergency action instructions received by the receiving unit 22, and a control slave The drug control unit 30 controls the amount of the drug ejected from the man-machine 100 . The flight control unit 23 and the drug control unit 30 pass Figure 5 The flight controller 501 in is realized. The drone 100 is connected to the emergency operator 10 by wire or wirelessly, and the user 402 can operate it arbitrarily during the autonomous flight of the drone 100 . The emergency operator 10 sends an emergency action command to the drone 100 .

[0093] The emergency operator 10 may have only a function of generating an emergency stop command. In addition, it may have a function of transmitting all instructions of...

[0125] use Figure 10 Another embodiment in which the emergency operator 10 transmits an emergency operation command will be described. This figure is an example of the home screen 800 displayed by the emergency operator 10 . In the present embodiment, the emergency operator 10 has functions of displaying the operation of the drone 100 and instructing the operation of the drone 100 in addition to sending an emergency operation command.

[0126] On the main screen 800, there are peripheral device status display area 801, flight status display area 802, airframe status display area 803, altitude adjustment input unit 804, map display area 805, route information display area 806 and emergency operation area 807.

[0127] Peripheral device state display area 801 displays the battery remaining amount, pump state, medicine remaining amount, communication state, GPS reception state, etc. of drone 100 . Situations of high importance are preferably communicated reliably to the operat...

no. 3 approach

[0137] Regarding the third embodiment of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the emergency operator according to the present invention, the differences from the first embodiment described above will be mainly described. The emergency operator of the third embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that it is a glasses-type wearable terminal or an earphone-type wearable terminal. In addition, the emergency operator may be configured by combining one or more of button-type, glasses-type wearable terminals, and earphone-type wearable terminals. In addition, about the same structure as 1st Embodiment, the same code|symbol is attached|subjected.

[0138] Such as Figure 11 As shown, the emergency operator 20 is a glasses-type wearable terminal 4011 or an earphone-type wearable terminal 4012 . The glasses-type wearable terminal 4011 is a device that looks like glasses, ie glasses, and can be worn by hanging the glasses legs on the ears of the user 402 . The earphone-type we...

Abstract

A highly safe drone is provided. The drone (100) comprises a reception unit (22) that can receive an emergency operation command, and a flight control unit (23) that controls a flight operation on thebasis of the emergency operation command transmitted by an operating device (10) and received by the reception unit, wherein the emergency operation command comprises at least one command among: an emergency stopping command for dropping the drone; an emergency landing command for landing the drone; an emergency hovering command for making the drone hover; and an emergency return command for making the drone return to a prescribed site.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an aircraft (unmanned aerial vehicle), in particular to an unmanned aerial vehicle with improved safety, a control method and a control program thereof, a manipulator used with the unmanned aerial vehicle, and a control method of the manipulator. Background technique [0002] The application of small helicopters (multi-rotor helicopters) generally called drones is advancing. As one of the important application fields thereof, there is exemplified the spraying of chemical agents such as agricultural chemicals and liquid fertilizers on farmland (farms) (for example, Patent Document 1). Compared with Europe and the United States, in Japan, where farmland is small, it is more suitable to use drones instead of manned planes or helicopters. [0003] Through quasi-zenith satellite system or RTK-GPS (Real Time Kinematic-Global Positioning System) and other technologies, the drone can accurately know the absolute position of th...
