Aerial Vehicle Heading Alignment With Working Bench Orientation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current aerial vehicle heading control methods are inconvenient and affect flight safety and experience, as drone pilots must manually adjust the aircraft's orientation using remote controls, which can be cumbersome and disrupt flight operations.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that calculate and adjust the aerial vehicle's heading based on the pilot's working bench orientation, using a heading angle obtaining unit, a working bench position obtaining unit, and an angle calculation unit to determine and implement heading adjustments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual remote control adjustment is used to control aerial vehicle heading, then the pilot can adjust the aircraft orientation, but the operation becomes cumbersome and affects flight safety and experience
Solution Approach 1:
The aerial vehicle automatically obtains its own heading angle and calculates the adjustment angle needed to align with the working bench direction, performing the heading adjustment function itself without requiring continuous manual intervention from the pilot
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical remote control operation with an automated electronic control system that uses sensors, processors, and communication modules to automatically adjust the aerial vehicle's heading based on calculated angles
2Measurement precision
If the pilot continuously monitors and adjusts the aircraft nose orientation after takeoff, then the heading can be corrected, but the flight operations are disrupted and experience is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously obtains the aerial vehicle's current heading angle, compares it with the working bench direction angle, calculates the difference, and automatically adjusts the heading to maintain alignment, creating a closed-loop feedback control system
Solution Approach 2:
The automated heading control system operates continuously during flight, constantly monitoring and adjusting the aerial vehicle's orientation without interrupting the pilot's primary flight operations or requiring discrete manual interventions

AI summary
The present disclosure provides an aerial vehicle heading control method, to conveniently and effectively adjust a heading of an aerial vehicle. The aerial vehicle heading control method includes: obtaining a heading angle of an aerial vehicle; obtaining a direction angle of a working bench; calculating a heading adjustment angle of the aerial vehicle according to the heading angle of the aerial vehicle and the direction angle of the working bench; and adjusting a heading of the aerial vehicle according to the heading adjustment angle of the aerial vehicle. Therefore, the current heading angle of the aerial vehicle and the current direction angle of the working bench are calculated and the heading of the aircraft is adjusted, so that the aerial vehicle can conveniently adjust the heading based on a current orientation of the working bench.
