Abstract
The invention is a sky-art system that makes use of UAV maneuverability and compensation for atmospheric conditions and forces coupled with an attached subsystem that provides control over smoke generation, smoke flow, and positioning.
Claims14
A sky art system comprising:
- a payload subsystem operative to attach to a UAV comprising:
- a thermally insulated vaporization chamber subsystem;
- at least one heating element subsystem;
- a fluid reservoir and pump subsystem for containing and dispensing aerosol fluid;
- a communications interface operative to receive emission commands;
- a plurality of sensors capable of sensing temperature, flow, pressure and fluid levels;
- and
- a controller subsystem operative to control smoke generation and delivery, and to cooperate with a UAV control system to synchronize position with emission at all times.
5 more elements
A method for creating sky art using a sky-art system comprising:
- launching a UAV with a sky-art subsystem payload;
- receiving by the UAV instructions for position and emission control;
- confirming, by a UAV control system, a position based on onboard GNSS reading;
- executing, by a smoke-control subsystem, emission commands;
- a) moving and confirming a next position;
- b) executing next emission commands;
- repeating steps a) and b) until all positions and emission commands have been executed;
- and
- logging of positions, emission events and telemetry for each position.
