Wingless flight instrument

Abstract

The invention relates to a wing-free flight instrument, which has a plurality of lift rotors driven by an electric motor and rotating about different rotor axes. The flight instrument has at least one energy store for providing electrical energy necessary for operating the lift rotor, at least one control device for actuating the lift rotor and for communicating with a ground station, and at least two camera devices for detecting panoramic images. The minimum, spherical rotor envelope that surrounds all the lift rotors has a larger volume than the minimum, spherical camera envelope that surrounds the camera lenses of all the camera mechanisms. The camera mechanism spans a field of view, where the field of view surrounds the entire flight instrument, and where the lift rotor is outside of the field of view.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese Patent Application No. 201680077983.6 with an application date of November 1, 2016, entitled "Flying Instrument Without Wings". technical field [0002] The invention relates to a wingless flight device having a plurality of electric-motor-driven lift rotors that rotate about different rotor axes, wherein the flight device has at least one energy store For supplying the electrical energy necessary for operating the lift rotor, at least one control mechanism for actuating the lift rotor and for communication with a ground station, and at least two camera mechanisms for detecting panoramic images. Background technique [0003] Such unmanned and remotely controlled flight instruments from the ground station, such as quadcopters for example, are used to generate aerial image panoramas. For this purpose, in known flight instruments a plurality of camera mechanisms are usually arranged on the frame of the flight instru...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] For this reason, the flying instruments known from the prior art are not suitable for taking and producing panoramas, for example, when flying close to buildings, when flying over buildings or, for example, also flying over trees or the like , since the object to be imaged is often outside the field of view of the camera in this type of recording, so that the object can only be partially imaged accordingly, and at each point in time of the flyby The generation of a complete panoramic picture of the surroundings of the above-mentioned flight instruments is not feasible or is only feasible to a limited extent
