20180143636 · 2018-05-24 ·

The invention relates to a system for shooting moving images, includes a drone provided with a camera and a ground station communicating with the drone, the camera being directed along a sight axis, the displacements of the drone being defined by flight instructions applied to a set of propulsion units of the drone, the drone being adapted to fly autonomously to shoot moving images of a target moving with the ground station. The system includes control means configured to generate the flight instructions so as to hold substantially constant the angle between the sight axis of the camera and the direction of displacement of the target upon activation of the target tracking. The ground station includes means, controlled by at least one piloting means forming a button for activating the target tracking, to alternatively switch the drone piloting mode between a mode of activation of the target tracking system and a deactivation mode.

Contour scanning with an unmanned aerial vehicle

In some examples, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) may determine a plurality of contour paths spaced apart from each other along at least one axis associated with a scan target. For instance, each contour path may be spaced away from a surface of the scan target based on a selected distance. The UAV may determine a plurality of image capture locations for each contour path. The image capture locations may indicate locations at which an image of a surface of the scan target is to be captured. The UAV may navigate along the plurality of contour paths based on a determined speed while capturing images of the surface of the scan target based on the image capture locations.
