  • Drone obstacle avoidance using real-time wind estimation
    Patent number: 10909864
    Abstract: System and techniques for drone obstacle avoidance using real-time wind estimation are described herein. A wind metric is measures at a first drone and communicated to a second drone. In response to receiving the wind metric, a flight plan of the second drone is modified based on the wind metric.

  • METHODS AND APPARATUS TO CAPTURE TOMOGRAMS OF STRUCTURES USING UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES
    Publication number: 20190041856
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus to capture tomograms of structures using unmanned aerial vehicles are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a flight controller, implemented by at least one processor, to control a first unmanned aerial vehicle adjacent to a structure. The example apparatus further includes a first tomography device mounted to the first unmanned aerial vehicle. The first tomography device is to at least one of (a) transmit tomography waves to or (b) detect tomography waves from a second tomography device mounted on a second unmanned aerial vehicle to generate a tomogram of the structure.
