Articulated ring wing evtol structure with distributed propulsion and advanced dynamic payload stabilization system and integrated energy regeneration and safety systems

An aerial vehicle comprising:

• a ring-wing airframe;
• a plurality of decentralized battery modules mounted to the ring-wing airframe, each battery module comprising:
• a thermo-structural shell,
• a battery management micro-regulator,
• a sensor suite including a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, a voltage sensor, and an acoustic sensor, and
• an ultra-fast isolation stack comprising a frangible dowel pin, a gallium-nitride switch, and a pyrotechnic fuse configured to sever electrical connection from the aerial vehicle in response to a predicted thermal event;
• and, a battery control algorithm comprising a physics-informed neural network trained to anticipate thermal runaway from multi-sensor fusion data and activate the ultra-fast isolation stack.

An aerial vehicle comprising:

• a ring-wing airframe;
• a robotic spray arm mounted beneath the ring-wing airframe, the robotic spray arm comprising a multi-segment boom, a retractable spray nozzle, and a thrust-augmented compact torque actuator;
• a para-brella system comprising a shape-memory fabric mounted to the ring-wing airframe and configured to deploy to deflect downwash away from a spray target area;
• a dynamic control algorithm configured to synchronize boom actuation, ring-wing articulation, and spray nozzle operation in response to real-time vehicle dynamics;
• and,
• a stabilization system comprising a gyro-torque injector positioned adjacent to the robotic spray arm and configured to counteract torsional disturbances during spraying.
