  • Publication number: 20240051681
    Abstract: A system for landing spot analysis including an electric aircraft and a sensor connected to the electric aircraft. The sensor is configured to detect a landing datum relating to a possible landing spot, wherein the landing datum comprises information regarding the physical properties of the possible landing spot. The system also including a controller onboard the electric aircraft and communicatively connected to the sensor. The controller is configured to receive a command identifying at least the possible landing spot, receive the landing datum from the sensor, generate a landing determination as a function of the landing datum, wherein the landing determination relates to the suitability of the possible landing spot and generating the landing determination includes transmitting a landing request to air traffic control, and transmit the landing determination to a pilot.

  • Patent number: 11710413
    Abstract: Aspects relate to a system for flight plan generation of an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. An exemplary system for flight plan generation includes a flight controller mounted on an eVTOL aircraft. The flight controller may be configured to receive a plurality of flight plan data and generate a flight plan for the aircraft as a function of the plurality of flight plan data.

  • Publication number: 20180033266
    Abstract: Several methods and a system of automated motion disturbance detection and alerting are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes associating a protection device with a movable tangible personal property. The method also includes activating the protection device remotely. The method further includes detecting, through a sensor in the protection device, a motion disturbance of the movable tangible personal property. The method further includes automatically responding based on a set of user-specified preferences when an intensity of the motion disturbance exceeds a minimum threshold of a sensitivity associated with the protection device. The method furthermore includes relaying a confirmed motion disturbance of the movable tangible persona property to a user of the protection device. The method furthermore includes protecting the movable tangible personal property through the automatic response of the protection device.
