Drone system, drone, movable body, drone system control method, and drone system control program

A drone system control method, comprising a drone and a movable body, which is movable with loading the drone and where the drone can take off and land, wherein the drone and the movable body cooperate to operate;

• wherein the movable body comprising a take-off and landing area which becomes a take-off and landing point where the drone is loaded and where the drone takes off and lands;
• the method comprising steps of:
• controlling a flight of the drone;
• transmitting an information possible to distinguish whether the drone is in flight;
• loading the drone on the take-off and landing area and moving the movable body with the drone;
• receiving the information from the drone;
• indicating an information based on the information received from the drone;
• and
• making at least one of a restriction of an operation of the movable body or an indication of a display unit different from a case when the drone is not in flight when the information indicating that the drone is in flight is received by the step of receiving the information from the drone.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a computer-executable program for controlling a drone system, comprising a drone and a movable body, which is movable with loading the drone and where the drone can take off and land, wherein the drone and the movable body cooperate to operate;

• wherein the movable body comprising a take-off and landing area which becomes a take-off and landing point where the drone is loaded and where the drone takes off and lands;
• the program comprising instructions for:
• controlling a flight of the drone;
• transmitting an information possible to distinguish whether the drone is in flight;
• loading the drone on the take-off and landing area and moving the movable body with the drone;
• receiving the information from the drone;
• indicating an information based on the information received from the drone;
• and
• making at least one of a restriction of an operation of the movable body or an indication of a display unit different from a case when the drone is not in flight when the information indicating that the drone is in flight is received by the instruction for receiving the information from the drone.

A movable body movable with loading a drone and possible for the drone to take off and land, comprising:

• a take-off and landing area where the drone is loaded and becomes a take-off and landing point where the drone takes off and lands;
• a movement controller moving the movable body with the drone;
• a movable body receiver receiving an information from the drone;
• and
• a display unit indicating an information based on the information received from the drone;
• wherein when the information indicating that the drone is in flight is received by the movable body receiver, at least one of a restriction of an operation of the movable body or an indication of the display unit is made different from a case when the drone is not in flight.

A drone loaded on a movable body and possible for moving with the movable body, comprising:

• a flight controller controlling a flight of the drone;
• and
• a drone transmitter transmitting an information possible to distinguish whether the drone is in flight;
• wherein the movable body comprises:
• a take-off and landing area where the drone is loaded and becomes a take-off and landing point where the drone takes off and lands;
• a movement controller loading the drone on the take-off and landing area and moving the movable body with the drone;
• a movable body receiver receiving an information from the drone;
• and
• a display unit indicating an information based on the information received from the drone;
• wherein when the information indicating that the drone is in flight is received by the movable body receiver, at least one of a restriction of an operation of the movable body or an indication of the display unit is made different from a case when the drone is not in flight.
