UAV controller device

Abstract

An UAV controller device is provided. In some embodiments, the device may include a control panel having one or more user control inputs, and a processing unit may be in communication with the control inputs. A display screen may also be in communication with the processing unit. Optionally, the display screen may be movable between an open and a closed position. A side wall may be coupled to a proximal wall and to a distal wall, the side wall, proximal wall, and distal wall forming a storage compartment. The storage compartment may have a storage cavity for removably receiving a UAV, and the UAV may be in wireless communication with the processing unit. A camera, for recording video, may be coupled to the UAV. Video recorded by the camera may be displayed on the display screen, and one or more of the control inputs may govern movement of the UAV.
