Abstract
Herein is disclosed an unmanned aerial vehicle alignment system comprising one or more image sensors, configured to obtain an image of a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles and provide to one or more processors image data corresponding to the obtained image; one or more processors, configured to detect from the image data image positions of the plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles; derive a target position based on a relationship between an image position and a target alignment; and determine an adjustment instruction to direct an unmanned aerial vehicle toward the target position.
