Movable Platform Control Terminal With Automatic Scene Role Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing control systems for movable platforms face inefficiencies due to the need for different firmware and control methods for various service forms, leading to inefficient control and management of unmanned devices across different service applications.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a method and apparatus that determines the current scene role of a control terminal, automatically selects corresponding control functions, and switches scene roles when connecting to a new movable platform, allowing seamless transition between different service forms without mutual interference.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If different firmware is burned into the control terminal for each service form, then the control terminal can control different movable platforms, but the control terminal becomes complex and cannot efficiently manage multiple service forms
Solution Approach 1:
The control terminal uses a single universal control terminal that can adapt to different service forms through scene role switching, eliminating the need for multiple specialized control terminals. The scene role mechanism allows one control terminal to perform multiple functions by dynamically switching between different service forms (aerial photography, delivery, inspection, etc.)
Solution Approach 2:
The control terminal dynamically switches between different scene roles based on the connected movable platform's service form. The scene role is not fixed but can be changed in real-time when the movable platform connects or disconnects, allowing the control terminal to adapt its control methods and parameters dynamically
2Device complexity
If a single control terminal is used for multiple service forms, then device complexity is reduced, but control precision and reliability for each service form deteriorates due to potential interference
Solution Approach 1:
The control terminal segments different service forms into distinct scene roles (e.g., aerial photography scene role, delivery scene role, inspection scene role). Each scene role contains service-form-specific control methods and parameters, isolating them from interference by other service forms while maintaining reliable control for each specific function
3Reliability
If manual switching between service forms is required, then control reliability is maintained, but time efficiency deteriorates due to manual intervention
Solution Approach 1:
The control terminal automatically switches scene roles based on the movable platform's connection status and service form identification. When a movable platform connects, the control terminal automatically obtains its service form and switches to the corresponding scene role without requiring manual user intervention, saving time while maintaining reliability through automatic service-form-specific control methods

AI summary
A method of controlling a movable platform may comprise determining a current scene role currently used by a control terminal to control a first movable platform as a first scene role, the first scene role characterizing a first service form currently executed by the first movable platform; automatically selecting a corresponding control function based on the current scene role; after determining that the control terminal has disconnected communication connection with the first movable platform and established a new communication connection with a second movable platform, obtaining a second service form to which the second movable platform belongs; and switching the current scene role currently used by the control terminal from the first scene role corresponding to the first service form to which the first movable platform belongs to a second scene role corresponding to the second service form to which the second movable platform belongs.
