UAV positional anchors

A system for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) positional anchors, the system comprising:

• an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) at one location within a defined space;
• at least one anchor at another location within the defined space, the at least one anchor comprising a signal interface that broadcasts signals;
• and
• an augmented reality system that:
• generates at least one visual element to augment the at least one anchor, wherein a location of the at least one visual element is based on a location of at least one anchor within the defined space, and
• changes the at least one visual element when the UAV is flown to the location of the at least one anchor within the defined space.

A method for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) positional anchors, the method comprising:

• broadcasting signals via a signal interface of at least one anchor, wherein an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is at one location within a defined space, and the at least one sensor is at another location within the defined space;
• and
• executing instructions stored in memory of a virtual reality system, wherein execution of the instructions by a processor of the virtual reality system:
• generates a virtual environment corresponding to the defined space, the virtual environment comprising at least one virtual element, wherein a location of the at least one virtual element within the virtual environment is based on the location of at least one anchor within the defined space, and
• generates a visual indication within the virtual environment when the UAV is detected within a predetermined distance from the location of the at least one anchor within the defined space.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, having embodied thereon a program executable by a processor to perform a method for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) positional anchors, the method comprising:

• broadcasting signals via a signal interface of at least one anchor, wherein an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is at one location within a defined space, and the at least one sensor is at another location within the defined space;
• generating a virtual environment corresponding to the defined space, the virtual environment comprising at least one virtual element, wherein a location of the at least one virtual element within the virtual environment is based on the location of at least one anchor within the defined space;
• and
• generating a visual indication within the virtual environment when the UAV is detected within a predetermined distance from the location of the at least one anchor within the defined space.
