Title:
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR USER INTERACTION AND FEEDBACK VIA CONTROL OF TETHER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/125309
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Described herein are methods and systems for motorized control of a tether, such as for purposes of user interaction and feedback. In particular, a UAV's control system may determine one or more operational parameters of a motor for a winch disposed in the UAV, the winch including the tether and a spool. The control system may then detect in the one or more operational parameters, an operational pattern of the motor that is indicative of an intentional user-interaction with the tether. Based on the detected operational pattern of the motor that is indicative of the intentional user-interaction with the tether, the control system may determine a motor response process. Then, the control system may operate the motor in accordance with the determined motor response process.
