[0022] Nowadays, the use of aircraft equipped with cameras for shooting is becoming more and more popular among video content creators. In the use scenario of existing aircraft using fixed shooting subjects to shoot complex camera movements, in order to obtain better shooting effects, it is usually necessary to repeat the flight camera movement shooting many times to ensure better shooting conditions, such as weather, lighting, shooting subjects and other factors. However, in actual shooting operations, shooting conditions are usually unstable, such as real-time changes in weather, some special weather may be fleeting, and complex camera movements are difficult to have a high shooting success rate. In addition, the shooting subject may also be the operator of the aircraft, and it is difficult to maintain a better demeanor when operating the aircraft. In summary, in order to obtain a higher success rate and more efficient shooting experience, the function of being able to store real-time camera movement trajectories and repeatedly shoot pictures according to the stored camera movement trajectories will become extra practical.
[0023] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for photographing and reproducing an aircraft and an aircraft to achieve automatic photographing and improve photographing effects.
[0024] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides an aircraft 100, which has a flight function. The aircraft 100 may include a camera 110. The camera 110 may be installed at at least one end of the aircraft 100, such as the front end, and the camera 110 may shoot a video or image of at least one end of the aircraft 100, such as the front end. In some embodiments, the camera 110 may be connected to the fuselage of the aircraft 100 through a pan-tilt structure 120, so that the camera 110 has higher shooting stability during the flight of the aircraft 100.
[0025] In some embodiments, the aircraft 100 may also be paired with a remote controller 200, and the remote controller 200 may wirelessly communicate with the aircraft 100. The aircraft 100 may be, but is not limited to, an unmanned aircraft, a drone, an unmanned aircraft, etc. The remote controller 200 is a remote control device that matches the aircraft and can be used to remotely control the flight of the aircraft and the shooting of the camera. The remote controller 200 may be held by a user or operator and may send instructions to the aircraft by wireless transmission, thereby controlling the flight of the aircraft and the shooting of the camera.
[0026] In some embodiments, the remote controller 200 may include a control component 210 and a display component 220. The control component 210 may control the flight of the aircraft 100 and / or the shooting of the camera 110. Exemplarily, the control component 210 may include a plurality of function buttons and a rocker, which may control the flight of the aircraft 100 and / or the shooting of the camera 110. The display component 220 may synchronously display the shooting picture of the camera 110. In some embodiments, the display component 220 has a touch function or a display interface control, and provides a touch component to control the shooting of the camera 110. In other embodiments, during the use of the remote controller 200, in order to be able to view the shooting effect in time and control the shooting of the camera, a display and control terminal such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer may also be loaded on the remote controller 200, and the flight parameters of the aircraft 100 and the shooting picture of the camera 110 may be synchronously displayed through the control terminal. In some embodiments, the remote controller 200 may display the map software through the display component 220 or the control terminal, and display the flight trajectory and flight parameters of the aircraft 100 on the map software. It can be understood that the map software may be an application installed by the display component 220 or the control terminal.
[0027] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a method for photographing and reproducing an aircraft provided in an embodiment of the present application. For example, Figure 2 The shooting and reproduction method of the aircraft shown can be Figure 1 The aircraft 100 shown performs and includes the following steps.
[0028] Step S201: The aircraft starts and visually locks onto a target through a camera.
[0029] In some embodiments, the aircraft 100 starts flying and turns on the camera 110. During the flight of the aircraft 100, the camera 110 can visually lock the shooting target, such as the target person or the target object, in the shooting picture, so that the aircraft 100 uses the locked shooting target as a calibration point during the flight shooting process, and always places the shooting target in the shooting picture or in a specific position of the shooting picture. For example, the aircraft 100 provides the camera 110 to provide an initial shooting picture, and through the visual recognition or selection operation of the aircraft 100, the specific target, such as the target person or the target object, in the initial shooting picture is visually locked, so that the aircraft 100 uses the locked shooting target as a calibration point during the subsequent flight shooting process, and always places the shooting target in the shooting picture or in a specific position of the shooting picture, such as the middle of the shooting picture, thereby forming a visual lock and tracking shooting of the shooting target. It can be understood that the initial shooting picture here can be a frame of the shooting picture of the aircraft 100 during the flight or hovering.
[0030] Step S202: calling the aircraft's shooting to reproduce the trajectory.
[0031] In some embodiments, the aircraft 100 calls a formed shooting and reproducing trajectory. The formed shooting and reproducing trajectory may be a shooting and reproducing trajectory previously recorded and stored by the aircraft 100, or a shooting and reproducing trajectory loaded from a cloud device.
[0032] The shooting and reproducing track previously recorded and stored by the aircraft 100 can be formed by recording the flight of the aircraft 100. Specifically, the user or operator controls the aircraft 100 to start the flight and visually locks the shooting target through the camera 110, controls the aircraft 100 to fly to the starting point of the shooting, and then starts the recording through the start control displayed by the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 or the start button of the control component 210. It can be understood that after starting the recording, the display component 220 displays a countdown, and after the countdown ends, the flight data of the aircraft 100 is recorded. In some embodiments, the countdown can be but is not limited to 3 seconds, 5 seconds or 10 seconds. During the recording flight, the user or operator can control the aircraft 100 to fly according to the camera movement track to be shot. When the aircraft 100 is controlled to fly to the end point of the camera movement track to be shot, the recording is ended through the end control displayed by the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 or the end button of the control component 210, and the recording can be ended at this time. The shooting and reproducing track is formed according to the recorded flight data of the aircraft 100. In some embodiments, the flight data of the aircraft 100 includes at least a flight trajectory and a flight speed. In some embodiments, the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory can be saved in the aircraft 100 for subsequent aircraft 100 call; or, the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory can be uploaded to a cloud device for aircraft 100 to load and call again or other electronic devices to load and call. It is understood that after the aircraft 100 finishes recording, the aircraft 100 can hover to wait for further operations by the user or operator.
[0033] In some embodiments, the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory may be a shooting and reproducing trajectory loaded from a cloud device, which means that the cloud device may store the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory, which may be pre-uploaded and stored by the aircraft 100 or uploaded and stored by other electronic devices or aircraft. The aircraft 100 can obtain the shooting and reproducing trajectory by loading the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory stored from the cloud device. It can be understood that the cloud device may be a storage and sharing center for shooting and reproducing trajectories, and different aircraft or electronic devices may upload recorded shooting and reproducing trajectories to the cloud device for storage, or download stored shooting and reproducing trajectories from the cloud device for loading and calling. Thus, the shooting and reproducing trajectory recorded by the aircraft 100 may be used as a shared resource, which may be called by the aircraft 100 itself or other electronic devices at any time through the interaction of the cloud device.
[0034] In some embodiments, after the aircraft 100 calls the formed shooting and reproduction trajectory, the remote controller 200 can display the map and the shooting and reproduction trajectory through the display component 220, and display the shooting and reproduction trajectory on the map for the user or operator to view to assist in judging the flight of the aircraft 100.
[0035] Step S203: Calibrate the aircraft to the starting point of the captured reproducible trajectory.
[0036] In some embodiments, before controlling the aircraft 100 to fly and shoot, it is necessary to calibrate the aircraft 100 and the starting point of the called shooting and reproducing trajectory to ensure that the aircraft 100 can fly according to the shooting and reproducing trajectory. By judging whether the relative position between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target is different from the relative position between the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target, it is judged whether it is necessary to calibrate the aircraft 100 and the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory. When it is judged that the relative position between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target is different from the relative position between the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target, the relative position and angle between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target are calibrated to the relative position and angle between the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target.
[0037] Exemplarily, when executing the shooting and reproducing trajectory, the shooting target is movable or due to the terrain and other reasons, and the aircraft 100 is also movable, it is necessary to identify the current position of the aircraft 100 and the current position of the shooting target to obtain the relative position and angle between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target. By comparing the position parameters of the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target with the position parameters of the aircraft 100 and the shooting target, it is determined whether the two are consistent. In some embodiments, the position parameters include at least the aircraft altitude, the aircraft heading angle, the distance between the aircraft and the shooting target by triangulation, and the camera angle, that is, the starting point data of the shooting and reproducing trajectory includes at least the altitude of the aircraft, the heading angle of the aircraft, the distance between the aircraft and the shooting target, and the shooting angle of the camera. By obtaining the current relative position parameters of the aircraft 100 at the current position and the shooting target, such as the current height of the aircraft 100, the heading angle of the aircraft 100, the distance between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target, and the shooting angle of the camera 110, the obtained current relative position parameters are compared and calibrated with the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the position parameters of the shooting target, so that the aircraft 100 is calibrated to the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the position parameters of the shooting target, such as calibrating the height of the aircraft 100, the heading angle of the aircraft 100, the distance between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target, and the shooting angle of the camera 110, thereby completing the calibration of the aircraft 100 to the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory. In some embodiments, the shooting angle of the camera 110 can also be the angle of the pan-tilt structure 120, and the shooting angle of the camera 110 can be adjusted accordingly by the angle of the pan-tilt structure 120.
[0038] In some embodiments, when it is determined that the relative position between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target is different from the relative position between the starting point of the shooting reproduction trajectory and the shooting target, the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 can display a calibration control, and the user or operator can confirm through the calibration control displayed on the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 or the calibration button of the control component 210, and the aircraft 100 is calibrated to the starting point of the shooting reproduction trajectory.
[0039] In other embodiments, when it is determined that the relative position between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target is different from the relative position between the starting point of the shooting reproduction track and the shooting target, and the location where the shooting reproduction track is executed is not the location where the shooting reproduction track is recorded, for example, the shooting reproduction track is executed in another city or another country, the relative position and angle between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target are automatically calibrated to the relative position and angle between the starting point of the shooting reproduction track and the shooting target. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 can display an automatic calibration prompt to prompt the user or operator that the aircraft 100 executes automatic calibration of the relative position and angle between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target to the relative position and angle between the starting point of the shooting reproduction track and the shooting target.
[0040] In other embodiments, the aircraft 100 may also be calibrated to any position of the shooting and reproducing trajectory, so that the aircraft 100 can be started at the calibration position of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and fly according to the shooting and reproducing trajectory. Then the relative position and angle between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target are calibrated to the relative position and angle between the preset position of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target. Exemplarily, the relative position and angle between the aircraft 100 and the shooting target are obtained, and the position parameters of the preset position of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target are compared with the position parameters of the aircraft 100 and the shooting target, so as to calibrate the aircraft 100 to the specific position of the shooting and reproducing trajectory and the shooting target. It can be understood that when the user or operator only needs to shoot part of the shooting and reproducing trajectory, the shooting can be started from the preset position of the shooting and reproducing trajectory, for example, from the middle point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory, so that the application of the shooting and reproducing trajectory is more flexible.
[0041] Step S204: Control the aircraft to fly and shoot according to the shooting and reproduction trajectory.
[0042] In some embodiments, after calling the shooting and reproducing trajectory and calibrating to the starting point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory, the shooting and reproducing trajectory can be started, and the aircraft 100 can be controlled to fly according to the shooting and reproducing trajectory and shoot during the flight. In some embodiments, during the flight and shooting of the aircraft 100 according to the shooting and reproducing trajectory, the camera 110 visually locks the shooting target in real time, that is, keeps shooting the shooting target, for example, controls the camera 110 to lock the shooting target in the middle of the shooting picture, so as to always keep the visual lock on the shooting target, and will not lose the shooting target during the shooting of the shooting and reproducing trajectory.
[0043] In some embodiments, when the aircraft 100 is flying according to the captured and reproduced trajectory, the aircraft 100 is controlled to fly according to the flight data of the captured and reproduced trajectory, that is, to fly according to flight data such as the flight trajectory and flight speed, to ensure a comprehensive reproduction of the flight of the aircraft 100.
[0044] The aircraft 100 locks the shooting target through the camera 110 viewing angle, calls the formed shooting reproduction track, calibrates the aircraft 100 to the starting point of the shooting reproduction track, so that the relative position of the aircraft 100 to the shooting target is consistent with the relative position of the starting point of the shooting reproduction track to the shooting target, and controls the aircraft 100 to automatically fly and shoot according to the shooting reproduction track. During the automatic flight and shooting process of the aircraft 100, automatic flight and shooting can be achieved without user operation, so that the shooting target can be more focused on shooting without being distracted by the control of the aircraft 100, thereby achieving convenient operation and helping to improve the shooting effect. In addition, the aircraft 100 can repeatedly fly and shoot according to the shooting reproduction track, which can adapt to different shooting environments, improve the success rate of shooting and provide a more efficient shooting experience.

For example, Figure 3 The shooting and reproduction method of the aircraft shown can be Figure 1 The aircraft 100 shown performs and includes the following steps.
[0046] Step S301: The aircraft starts and visually locks onto a target through a camera.
[0047] For detailed description of step S301, please refer to Figure 2 Step S201 and Figure 1 The relevant description will not be repeated here.
[0048] Step S302: Record the flight of the aircraft to form a shooting and reproducing trajectory.
[0049] In some embodiments, after the user or operator controls the aircraft 100 to start the flight and visually locks the shooting target through the camera 110, the aircraft 100 is controlled to fly to the starting point of the shooting. At this time, the recording is started through the start control displayed by the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 or the start button of the control component 210. It can be understood that after the recording is started, the display component 220 displays a countdown, and after the countdown ends, the flight data of the aircraft 100 is recorded. During the recording flight, the user or operator can control the aircraft 100 to fly according to the camera movement trajectory to be shot. When the aircraft 100 is controlled to fly to the end point of the camera movement trajectory to be shot, the recording is ended through the end control displayed by the display component 220 of the remote controller 200 or the end button of the control component 210, and the recording can be ended at this time. A shooting and reproduction trajectory is formed according to the recorded flight data of the aircraft 100. In some embodiments, the flight data of the aircraft 100 includes at least a flight trajectory and a flight speed. In some embodiments, the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory can be saved in the aircraft 100 for subsequent use by the aircraft 100; or, the formed shooting and reproducing trajectory can be uploaded to a cloud device for re-loading and re-calling by the aircraft 100 or other electronic devices. It is understood that after the aircraft 100 finishes recording, the aircraft 100 can hover to wait for further operations by the user or operator.
[0050] Step S303, calling the aircraft's shooting to reproduce the trajectory.
[0051] The detailed description of step S303 can be found in Figure 2 Step S202 and Figure 1 The relevant description will not be repeated here.
[0052] Step S304: Calibrate the aircraft to the starting point of the captured reproducible trajectory.
[0053] The detailed description of step S304 can be found in Figure 2 Step S203 and Figure 1 The relevant description will not be repeated here.
[0054] Step S305: Control the aircraft to fly and shoot according to the shooting and reproduction trajectory.
[0055] The detailed description of step S305 can be found in Figure 2 Step S204 and Figure 1 The relevant description will not be repeated here.
[0056] Step S306: End the flight and shooting of the reproducing trajectory, and control the aircraft to hover.
[0057] In some embodiments, after the aircraft 100 completes the flight and shooting according to the shooting and reproducing trajectory, the aircraft 100 is controlled to hover at the end point of the shooting and reproducing trajectory to wait for further operations by the user or operator.
[0058] In some embodiments, the aircraft 100 may store a safety mechanism for shooting and reproducing the trajectory. When the aircraft 100 is executing shooting and reproducing the trajectory and any condition in the safety mechanism is triggered, the aircraft 100 may immediately end shooting and reproducing the trajectory to ensure the safety of the aircraft 100. In some embodiments, the safety mechanism for shooting and reproducing the trajectory may include the following conditions: loss of positioning signal (GNSS signal) or loss of shooting target, higher priority function is triggered, cancellation of shooting and reproducing the trajectory is triggered, and / or the flight of the aircraft 100 touches a no-fly zone, a restricted flying zone or an electronic fence. Among them, the higher priority function may include but is not limited to the low-battery return function, the one-key return function, and / or the lost connection return function set by the aircraft 100. The cancellation of shooting and reproducing the trajectory can be triggered by the user or operator through the control component 210 of the remote controller 200 or the display interface control of the display component 220 to cancel the shooting and reproducing the trajectory.
[0059] In the shooting and reproducing method of the aircraft of the embodiment of the present application, the user or operator can explore the shooting points, control the aircraft 100 to pass through these shooting points in sequence, record the flight data of the aircraft 100 to form a shooting and reproducing trajectory, and confirm the desired shooting effect in advance, and call the shooting and reproducing trajectory when the shooting conditions are suitable. For example, when waiting for the shooting environment to be better or the shooting target state to be better, the shooting and reproducing trajectory is used to perform fast shooting, thereby improving the shooting efficiency and easily achieving the desired shooting effect. In addition, the shooting and reproducing trajectory formed by recording the flight data of the aircraft 100 can be saved as a shared resource, and can be used by the aircraft 100 itself or other electronic devices at any time through the interaction of cloud devices.
