A method for assisting obstacle avoidance of a mobile platform, comprising:
- determining to use a detection mode from a plurality of detection modes;
- detecting a characteristic condition of the mobile platform with respect to an obstacle using the detection mode;
- and
- directing the mobile platform to avoid the obstacle based on the detected characteristic condition.
An unmanned aerial vehicle (“UAV”), comprising:
- a plurality of propellers for providing a lifting power;
- and
- one or more processors, individually or collectively, operate to:
- determine a detection mode from a plurality of detection modes;
- detect a characteristic condition of the mobile platform with respect to an obstacle using the detection mode;
- and
- direct the UAV via the propellers to avoid the obstacle based on the detected characteristic condition.
