Description

police drone

technical field

The present invention mainly relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle, which is used as a road patrol to help control various problems in traffic.

Background of the invention

Unmanned aerial vehicles, which are also commonly referred to as unmanned aerial vehicles or remote-controlled guided vehicles, are gaining popularity in the market both in the future and in various commercial and civilian uses. Whether thermal imaging or mirror imaging, package delivery, farming, crop surveys, aerial aerobatics for filming, search and rescue missions, construction industry, cable inspection, reservoirs, pipelines, wildlife counting, delivery of medical equipment to remote locations or Other inaccessible areas, determination of illegal poaching by animal rights groups, livestock monitoring, wildfire aerial photography, pipeline security, home security, road patrols, anti-violation activities, search and rescue operations, release of life-saving equipment to multiple swimmers , damage assessment, real-time investigation of weather images through clouds, rain, fog, and day or night conditions.

Drones also work with remote sensing. Their remote sensing capabilities include multiple electromagnetic spectrum sensors, gamma sensors, biochemical sensors, chemical sensors, optical sensors, infrared lenses, and synthetic aperture radars.

In order to be able to perform these tasks, the UAV itself needs to complete some internal work and functions, such as testing, data utilization and communication. In order to avoid accidents or miss targets, drones should have the following capabilities:

Path Planning: Determine the best path for the vehicle to follow under the constraints of the purpose and mission, such as obstacles or fuel requirements.

Trajectory generation (also called action planning): determine an optimal control strategy to follow a given path or receive instructions from one place to another.

Trajectory management: Constraining a vehicle within the tolerances of a trajectory requires specific control strategies.

Task Configuration and Scheduling: Determine the best task assignment among a group of agents within time and equipment constraints.

Cooperative strategy: Form an optimal sequence and spatial distribution of activities among agents to maximize the probability of success in any given task situation.

Since drone technology is infinitely evolving, one of the most pressing uses for civilian use is in the police force, but the only viable ideas on the subject are for taking pictures, or real-time traffic video, or strikes on crime.

At present, none of the existing technologies in the market shows how UAVs can be used as highway patrols to help solve traffic jams in a traffic accident, assist police cars or ambulances to quickly reach the scene of the accident, and use drones in police cars or ambulances. The car arrives to assess the severity of the accident, guide the driver at the accident scene, and even establish a connection and communication between the police in the central control/command center and the car driver at the accident scene, scan documents, and print out the police report .

The present invention provides an unmanned aerial vehicle that can handle many different traffic problems by virtue of many devices closely arranged inside.

A brief description

The invention is to provide a police unmanned aerial vehicle to assist in controlling road traffic problems.

An improved drone uses many built-in devices and mechanisms. A camera is set at the front to provide real-time photos or video updates to the police on patrol or in the command/control center. data. At the back end, a mini scanner is set up to scan the driver's license in a traffic accident or in violation of traffic rules, while a mini printer set at the front end and under the camera can print traffic Tickets, a police report on traffic accidents, etc.

The communication between the police and the driver can also be monitored through a camera, and a speaker installed on the front and lower side of the drone and a microphone installed in the front between the printer and the camera.

The police drone also has an extendable/rotatable lens, which is a screen made of a mesh of diodes. The screen rotates around a tubular motor embedded under the drone. When performing tasks, the screen swivels down through a notch. When it hangs vertically downward, policemen on patrol or in the control/command center can issue commands in different forms to be displayed on the screen to guide driving.

The police emergency (danger) light signal is set on the surface of the drone body, which is located on the inner surface of the ring surrounding the propeller, so it can almost provide a 360-degree warning light.

There is a first aid kit located above the drone, which can be provided to people at the scene of the accident if needed.

Detailed Description of the Invention

The best mode of implementing the present invention:

In order to implement the present invention simply and smoothly, a detailed description about the various parts of the present invention supported by drawings is provided, wherein the main parts are arranged in order according to their importance; For each feature, there will be a number after the part text and in the part number list, which can make it easier to read the text. The numbers of the part features are listed here starting from 20. . When the characteristics of a component appear in this text, it will be directly given the number it needs. As shown in FIG. 1, the features of the components are arranged sequentially from 20, 21, 22....

As we all know, when an accident occurs, the first-line, second-line or more lanes on the road will be blocked, which means traffic congestion, and often, this congestion situation will extend to several kilometers away; Whether it is a police car or an ambulance driving quickly, it will be very difficult to pass through the congested area. Because time is very important for the injured, for drivers and passengers using the road, for the police and ambulance. However, to this day, there is still no use of an improved drone to minimize the side effects of accidents. The application of drones to police tasks is still in its infancy and is limited to taking pictures.

The present invention is to provide an improved police drone to help control road traffic problems, such as: accidents, traffic jams, traffic violations, printing police reports on accidents, issuing traffic tickets, monitoring and controlling traffic , contact and deal with driving problems before the police arrive, or do not require the involvement of the police, but only need an officer at the control/command center to deal with those problems remotely.

What is disclosed here is an improved police unmanned aerial vehicle 20, which uses many embedded devices and mechanisms inside it, such as the following:

1-A camera 21 is installed on the front side of the UAV 20, so as to provide real-time photos or videos to the police officers in the patrol or control/command center to provide the latest information. A miniature scanner 22 is then arranged on the rear side, so that the driver's license involved in an accident or traffic violation can be scanned; this scanner 22 can also be replaced by a video camera. A mini-printer 23 is then positioned under the front camera, so as to print traffic fines, accident police reports... etc. (Fig. 1, 2).

2-The communication between the police officer and the driver can be monitored through the camera 21, and a speaker 24 at the bottom of the front side of the UAV 20 is added, and a speaker 24 is installed on the front side, located at the mini printer 23 and the camera 21 between the pull-out microphone 25 to perform. The driver can be directed to perform almost all driving actions through the loudspeaker 24 (FIGS. 1-6). Police officers communicate.

It should be noted that based on the data collected by the UAV 20 about the accident, the footage transmitted to the control/command center (vehicles involved in an accident, license plate numbers, pictures of the driver), and based on and during the accident For individual drivers, or for conversations between a group of drivers, if the vehicle is still driving, the police officer at the control/command center can talk to the driver and insert the driver's ID card to be scanned by the mini-scanner 22, or by Camera 21 comes for them to take a picture, to use police incident report, and this report can directly be sent to driver's office by mini-printer 23 printing or direct utilization e-mail.

Therefore, in this case, there is no need for police officers, and there is no need to wait for patrolling police officers to arrive, and some incidents can be dealt with very quickly.

3- Other features of the police drone 20 are its extendable/rotatable command screen 26 (Fig. Different commercial (media) uses. The screen 26 is formed by a mesh of diodes 27 . The screen rotates in a conventional manner about a tubular motor 28 (not shown) disposed in the lower body of the drone 20 . When on duty, the screen 26 can be rotated downwards by a notch 29, so when suspended vertically, the police on patrol, or in the control/command center, can make appropriate calls according to traffic demand conditions. Instructions are presented on the screen 26 to guide the driver to the correct lane.

Thus, a drone 20 with a command screen 26 hovering in front of a car's windshield can guide driving without requiring a police officer to stand in the middle of the driveway. At the same time, the UAV 20 also has the ability to quickly move from one place or one lane to another, with a wide viewing angle, and the ability to take pictures of traffic conditions hundreds of meters away. Block what the police officers on the scene can do.

4-Police emergency (danger) warning light 30 is arranged on the body surface of the drone, and is located above the inner ring 31 surrounding the propeller 32, so as to provide almost 360-degree flashing light (Fig. 1- 5).

5-The first aid box 33 is arranged in the central part (Fig. 2) above the drone 20, so that when necessary, it can provide services to people at the scene of the accident. The driver or the person assisting the patient can be directed to the first aid box 33 through the voice of the police officer at the control/command center and the horn 24 of the drone 20 .

6-The situation of unmanned aerial vehicles handling accidents (Figure 8-11): Here, three unmanned aerial vehicles 20 (marked in Figures 1, 2, and 3) are used to handle an accident on a three-lane expressway ,There was a traffic accident involving two vehicles on the left lane, which caused a traffic jam. A policeman on patrol tried to approach the scene from the rear. The three unmanned aerial vehicles 20 (1, 2, 3) arrived at the scene before the patrol police officers arrived. The first drone (1) 20 approaches the vehicle at the scene of the accident, and starts taking pictures and communicating with the vehicle driver. The second drone (2) 20 is inserted directly between the stationary vehicle and the rear, speeding vehicles in the same lane, and begins to use the command screen 26 to guide those vehicles to move to the right lane ( correct lane) to stay away from the accident zone. The third UAV moves directly from the scene of the accident to the police patrol at a rate of 3)20, and at the same time warns the driver to move to the right. As soon as it reaches the vehicle that is directly in front of the patrolling police and blocking the front, it will immediately begin to use the command screen 26, and even utilize the horn 24 to issue orders to ask them to move to the right. This drone (3) moves forward in the same direction as the patrol, and at the same speed, to command other vehicles in front of the patrol car to move to the right, therefore, in front of the patrol car, because a vehicle blocks the view Vehicles that cannot obtain a good line of sight from the vehicle rearview mirror will know and be guided by the UAV 20 . Therefore, vehicles blocking the patrol car's lane will be notified early to clear the lane. This also has the added benefit that the vehicles will organize in the right lane and slow down before reaching the accident scene, where it will be difficult to move to the right.

This also avoids the occurrence of other traffic accidents, because when an accident occurs in the front, the vehicles in the rear will instantly find that the lane is blocked, so that they will immediately step on the vehicle vigorously, which will also cause more traffic chaos and Possibly more accidents.

7 - Drone Station (Center) Drawings (A, B, C): The center 34 as a drone station can be built into the provided shape. The center 34 provides a shelter, hard to reach, enclosed by an automatic door 35, AC air conditioned, and has charging service for the drone 20.

8-centre distribution map (Fig. 13): the center 34 distribution map of UAV 20 stations within a city range of about 25X35 kilometers can be established, so that each center has 6 UAVs 20, and each 3 can be composed of It works within a maximum range of 5 kilometers from its location. This distribution means that within 1-5 minutes, a group of 3 drones 20 can arrive at the scene and deal with accidents and traffic problems. Distribution for a city of this size would require 20 centers 34 and 240 drones 20 (these drones would cost $25 million, which is not a lot of money for a transportation plan in a large city) .

Note: The benefits of using drones for traffic control are not limited to the situation presented here as an example, it can also be used for traffic control of roundabouts, temporary work on malfunctioning traffic lights, and Directing a group of people in the right direction, rather than being enforced by officers standing in the road who are often invisible at short distances.

Industrial utilization

1- Police UAV devices, tools, and mechanisms are all composed of existing tools, parts, and mechanisms, plus improvements that can be implemented.

2-It has many uses in traffic, civilian rescue and security services, and it is also the first unmanned assistant for police officers.

3-The traditional remote control can be used to use command commands from the control/command center to approach stationary vehicles and traffic jams, and through its own camera and horn, the controlled police officers can handle various situations Traffic problems.

4- The revolutionary command screen itself offers many different options for civilian use.

5-It can have its own docking station (center), which provides docking, charging and storage services.

6-Use drones to avoid many additional accidents, maintain people's safety, and save time and money.
