Abstract
A high-place observation device for stably performing a fixed-point observation of a target object from a high place is provided. The high-place observation device provides [Solution] Provides a long pole which is formed to extend and contract freely and which stands on the installation surface, a rotorcraft for positioning the pole to a desirable height position by extending and contracting the pole by a floating force in a connected state, a winding mechanism which fixes and maintains the height position of the pole to the height position set by the rotorcraft, and a camera attached to the rotorcraft.
Claims9
A high-place observation device comprising:
- a rod-shaped body formed to extend and contract freely;
- a floating force generating means connected via a connector to the rod-shaped body for positioning the rod-shaped body to a desired height position by extending and contracting the rod-shaped body via a floating force in a connected state;
- a maintaining means for fixing and maintaining the height position of the rod-shaped body at the height position set via the floating force generating means;
- and
- an observation device attached to the floating force generating means,
- wherein the floating force generating means is a rotorcraft,
- wherein the connector releases the connection between the rod-shaped body and the rotorcraft so that the rotorcraft flies away from the rod.
