Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If users manually recall and replicate flight tasks or shooting positions, then they can complete flight tasks, but it is time-consuming and effort-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the copying principle by recording flight task data (including shooting positions, flight parameters, and environmental information) during the initial execution of a flight task, and then reproducing the same flight task by loading and executing the recorded data. This eliminates the need for manual recall and replication, significantly improving productivity and reducing time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-recording flight task data during the initial flight execution, storing it in a database for future use. This preliminary recording action enables rapid reproduction of flight tasks without requiring manual intervention later, thus resolving the contradiction between productivity and time consumption.
2Ease of operation
If users manually determine shooting positions and directions based on shot images, then they can achieve desired shots, but the process is time and effort consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent records shooting position data, camera parameters, and flight state information during the initial flight task execution. When reproducing the flight task, the system automatically loads and executes the recorded shooting position data, eliminating the need for manual determination of shooting positions and directions, thus improving ease of operation and reducing time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service by automatically recording, storing, and reproducing flight task data without requiring manual intervention. The aerial vehicle autonomously executes the reproduced flight task based on the loaded data, making the process easy to operate and time-efficient.
3Productivity
If flight task data is stored and reproduced automatically, then productivity is enhanced, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a flight database as an intermediary component to store and manage flight task data. This intermediary layer separates the data storage and retrieval functions from the flight control logic, enabling automatic flight task reproduction while maintaining manageable system complexity through modular design.

AI summary
A task processing method includes displaying a user prompt according to flight data of a plurality of flight tasks, in response to a selection operation with respect to the user prompt, selecting a target flight task, and automatically controlling, according to the flight data of the target flight task, an operation of an aerial vehicle to reproduce the target flight task. The target flight task is one flight task of the plurality of flight tasks. The flight data of the target flight task includes a waypoint coordinate of a waypoint and a gimbal orientation at the waypoint associated with the target flight task. Automatically controlling the operation of the aerial vehicle to reproduce the target flight task includes controlling the aerial vehicle to fly to the waypoint, and controlling a gimbal of the aerial vehicle to face the gimbal orientation while the aerial vehicle is at the waypoint.
