  • Publication number: 20230273613
    Abstract: A system including an unmanned aerial vehicle. The unmanned aerial vehicle includes image sensors and one or more physical computer processors. The image sensors are configured to capture images and/or video segments. The one or more physical computer processors create a user ID and/or other identifying information for a user and/or a consumer when a user and/or consumer registers with an authentication component. The processors associate the user ID and/or the other identifying information with one or more client computing platforms. The processors store the user ID and/or the other identifying information associated with the user and/or the consumer on the authentication component. The processors associate the user and/or the consumer with one or more accounts. The processors authenticate the user and/or the consumer with the authentication component so that the user and/or the consumer is permitted to access a repository of the images and/or the video segments.

  • Patent number: 11640169
    Abstract: Consumption information associated with a user consuming video segments may be obtained. The consumption information may define user engagement during a video segment and/or user response to the video segment. Sets of flight control settings associated with capture of the video segments may be obtained. The flight control settings may define aspects of a flight control subsystem for the unmanned aerial vehicle and/or a sensor control subsystem for the unmanned aerial vehicle. The preferences for the flight control settings of the unmanned aerial vehicle may be determined based upon the first set and the second set of flight control settings. Instructions may be transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle. The instructions may include the determined preferences for the flight control settings and being configured to cause the unmanned aerial vehicle to adjust the flight control settings to the determined preferences.
