  • Publication number: 20210240205
    Abstract: An altitude measuring method of an unmanned aerial robot is provided. The robot adjusts a level of the unmanned aerial robot so that the robot is at a horizontal state with respect the ground to measure the altitude. The robot generates a plurality of laser beams to the ground, and photographs the ground through the camera. The robot calculates a vertical distance from the ground to the robot based on the photographed image of the ground and the plurality of laser beams.

  • Publication number: 20200142432
    Abstract: Provided is an operation/posture control method of an unmanned aerial robot. More particularly, a position and posture of the unmanned aerial robot may be measured using a first sensor, and sensing information of the wind for charging a battery of the unmanned aerial robot may be measured using a second sensor. A drone based on the sensing information controls a posture of the unmanned aerial robot such that an angle between the unmanned aerial robot and the ground becomes a specific angle to generate power through a rotation of a propeller in the specific angle based on the sensing information, and the battery may be charged through the generated power.
