Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/026337
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a flight control device that prevents an unmanned aircraft from deviating from a predetermined allowed flight area and that can forcibly prevent deviation from said allowed flight area even when there is an abnormality in the flight environment of the unmanned aircraft or in the operation of a mechanism of the unmanned aircraft. Also provided is an unmanned aircraft that is provided with the flight control device. A flight control device that is provided with: a current-position acquisition means that acquires the flight position of an unmanned aircraft; an allowed-flight-area storage means; and a deviation prevention means that prevents an airframe from deviating from an allowed flight area. When the current-position acquisition means is unable to acquire the flight position of the airframe, or when the flight position of the airframe acquired by the current-position acquisition means is in the vicinity of the boundary between the allowed flight area and the outside of the allowed flight area, is continuously outside the allowed flight area for a prescribed period of time or longer, or is a prescribed distance or farther from the allowed flight area, the deviation prevention means forcibly renders the airframe unable to fly.
