Abstract
An unmanned aircraft includes: a sensor (person detection sensor) and so forth) that performs sensing of an external environment of the unmanned aircraft; a detector (suspicious person identifier) that detects a moving object based on a result of the sensing performed by the sensor; an obtainer (movement prohibition position determiner) that obtains area information indicating an area, entry to which by the moving object is undesirable; and a flight controller that causes the unmanned aircraft to move to a position between the moving object and the area indicated by the area information, based on a positional relation between the moving object and the area, and fly at the position that is a destination position.
Claims15
An unmanned aircraft, comprising:
- a sensor that performs sensing of an external environment of the unmanned aircraft;
- a detector that detects a moving object based on a result of the sensing performed by the sensor;
- an obtainer that obtains area information indicating an area, entry to which by the moving object is undesirable;
- and
- a flight controller that causes the unmanned aircraft to move to a position between the moving object and the area indicated by the area information, based on a positional relation between the moving object and the area, and fly at the position that is a destination position.
A control method of controlling an unmanned aircraft, the control method comprising:
- detecting a moving object based on a result of sensing performed by a sensor that performs sensing of an external environment of the unmanned aircraft;
- obtaining area information indicating an area, entry to which by the moving object is undesirable;
- and
- causing the unmanned aircraft to move to a position between the moving object and the area indicated by the area information, based on a positional relation between the moving object and the area, and fly at the position that is a destination position.
