Drone Remote Controller Height Sensing for Adaptive Flight Control

The remote controller is equipped with a height measuring device that enables it to not only control basic flight operations but also automatically adjust the drone's flying height based on the remote controller's own height measurements. This multi-functional capability allows the same device to perform both traditional control functions and autonomous height adjustment, thereby improving adaptability without requiring separate dedicated systems.

The remote controller measures its own height using an integrated height measuring device and uses this information to automatically adjust the drone's flying height. The system serves itself by using the remote controller's own positional data to make autonomous control decisions, eliminating the need for external height measurement equipment or manual height input from the operator.

The patent combines the gimbal's rotational movement with the drone body's pitch movement to achieve extended viewing angles. Instead of relying solely on the gimbal's limited rotation range, the system merges the gimbal's angular adjustment capability with the drone body's pitch articulation, allowing the camera to capture a wider field of view by coordinating both movement mechanisms work together.

The system dynamically adjusts the relationship between gimbal rotation and drone body pitch based on operational requirements. The control system continuously coordinates the gimbal's rotational angle with the drone body's pitch angle, allowing the camera to achieve extended viewing ranges by dynamically combining both degrees of freedom rather than relying on a fixed, limited gimbal rotation range.
