Description
The present invention relates to a multi-copter.
Generally, a multi-copter collectively refers to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) called a "drone" that is driven by induction of a radio wave by a person without burning, Logistics delivery, high-speed shooting, surveying, or accident investigation.
1 is a perspective view schematically showing a conventional multi-copter.

In order to restore the position and attitude of the multi-copter 1, an optical sensor (or an ultrasonic sensor) (not shown) and a GPS (inertial navigation device) (not shown) And the like are further mounted on the
However, in the conventional multi-copter (1), stable control is possible in the absence of wind, but when a sudden gust or downward air flow occurs, the position or attitude of the gas is already abruptly changed, There is a problem that accidents frequently occur because there is not enough time to cope with the situation. For example, when shooting in close proximity to a person, such as a multi-copter for broadcasting, or shooting in a harsh environment such as a mountain or a high-rise building, there is a problem in that ground personnel are injured or expensive equipment is damaged due to a blast.
An object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for measuring atmospheric data for a multi-copter capable of measuring wind direction and direction when an unstable atmospheric condition occurs.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a method of controlling a multi-copter using an atmospheric data measuring apparatus for a multi-copter, which enables reliable flight by measuring wind direction and direction when unstable atmospheric conditions occur.
In order to achieve the above object, an apparatus for measuring atmospheric data for a multi-copter according to an embodiment of the present invention is an apparatus for measuring atmospheric data for a multi-copter used in a multi-copter including a main body and a flight control computer, A measurement case so arranged; A sensing unit provided in the measurement case for sensing atmospheric information; And an operation unit for receiving the waiting information sensed by the sensing unit for use in position and posture correction of the multi-copter in the flight control computer and calculating the wind direction and intensity.
The measurement case may be provided in a main body positioned at the center of the multi-copter.
And a separation supporting bracket may be provided between the measurement case and the main body so that the measurement case is spaced apart from the main body.
The separation support bracket may be detachably attached to the main body.
The sensing unit may include: a plurality of sensing holes formed in the measurement case; And a pressure sensor provided in the measurement case and corresponding to each of the sensing holes.
A part of the plurality of sensing holes may be formed in the upper curved portion of the measurement case, and the rest may be formed in the lower portion of the measurement case.
The measurement case may have a hemispherical shape composed of an upper curved portion that forms an upper portion thereof and an upper curved portion that is convexed upward and a lower flat portion that is a lower portion thereof.
The plurality of pressure sensors include respective upper pressure sensors placed in respective sensing holes formed in the upper portion of the measurement case; And a lower pressure sensor placed in the sensing hole formed in the lower portion of the measurement case.
Wherein each of the pressure sensors is capable of sensing an atmospheric pressure based on the atmospheric information, and the arithmetic section calculates at least one of an upper atmospheric pressure sensed by the upper pressure sensor and a reference atmospheric pressure sensed from the lower pressure sensor And calculates the intensity and direction of the wind based on the calculated respective differential pressures.
In another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of controlling a multi-copter, the method comprising: receiving data on the intensity and direction of the wind from the apparatus for measuring an atmospheric data for a multi-copter according to an embodiment of the present invention; Estimating a position or posture of the multi-copter to be changed in advance based on the received data; And changing the thrust of the propeller based on the predicted position or posture so that the multi-copter is maintained in its original position or posture.
The step of previously changing the thrust of the propeller may be performed before the position or attitude of the multi-copter is changed from the wind.
In the step of changing the thrust of the propeller in advance, the propeller motor may be controlled so that the thrust of the propeller changes in real time based on the predicted position or attitude.
As described above, the apparatus for measuring atmospheric data for a multi-copter according to an embodiment of the present invention and the multi-copter control method using the apparatus can have the following effects.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for measuring atmospheric data for a multi-copter including a measurement case, a sensing unit for sensing the atmospheric information, and an operation unit for receiving the atmospheric information and calculating the wind direction and intensity The method comprising the steps of: measuring wind direction and direction when an unstable atmospheric condition such as a gust or a downward current occurs; receiving data on the wind intensity and direction, And a step of previously changing the thrust of the propeller on the basis of the predicted position or posture, so that when an unstable atmospheric condition such as a gust or a descending airflow is generated, In this way, the propeller thrust can be changed in advance before the position or attitude of the multi-copter is changed. A stable flight can be achieved by minimizing the movement of the multi-copter, such that the copter can be at its maximum in its original position or can be kept as full as possible in its original position.
