Control device for uav using user actions and images
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11921523B2) discloses a control device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that allows users to control the UAV through gestures and actions. The device includes a sensing device, an image receiver, a control transmitter, and a processor. The processor interprets user actions captured by the sensing device and converts them into control signals for the UAV, enabling users to control the UAV through gestures and movements. The control device can be a head-mounted display, a mobile electronic device, or a neck-mounted wearable device, each equipped with image capturing devices to sense user actions and convert them into control signals for the UAV.
Furthermore, the patent also describes a control method for UAVs that is adaptable for use with the control device and a display. The method involves receiving images from the UAV, continuously presenting them on a display, sensing user actions, converting these actions into control signals, and transmitting them to the UAV for control. The method includes specific steps for different types of control devices, such as head-mounted displays, mobile electronic devices, and neck-mounted wearable devices, each utilizing image capturing devices to sense user gestures and movements. Additionally, the method involves generating virtual hand images and superimposing them on the displayed images to enhance the user experience and control capabilities of the UAV through gestures and movements.
