  • Patent number: 11567491
    Abstract: A device and method for remotely controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle based on reinforcement learning are disclosed. An embodiment provides a device for remotely controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle based on reinforcement learning, where the device includes a processor and a memory connected to the processor, and the memory includes program instructions that can be executed by the processor to determine an inclination direction corresponding to the hand pose of a user, the movement direction of the hand, and the angle in the inclination direction based on sensing data associated with the pose of the hand or the movement of the hand acquired by way of at least one sensor, and determine one of a movement direction, a movement speed, a mode change, a figural trajectory, and a scale of the figural trajectory of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the determined inclination direction, movement direction, and angle.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10545495
    Abstract: A remote control device and method for a UAV, and a motion control device attached to the UAV. The remote control device is carried by a user, allowing the user to remotely control motions of the UAV. A sensor unit generates sensing data by sensing a motion of the remote control device using a sensor. A control unit determines at least one among a direction of inclination of the remote control device, an angle of the direction of inclination, and a period of time for which the direction of inclination is maintained, based on the sensing data, and generating a control command for controlling a motion of the UAV using at least one among the direction of inclination, the angle of the direction of inclination, and the period of time for which the direction of inclination is maintained. A communication unit transmits the control command to the UAV.
