UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE, DATA PROCESSING DEVICE, PATH SELECTION DEVICE, PROCESSING METHOD AND PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

An unmanned aerial vehicle (100) is allowed to return or land in an optimum path. Disclosed is a path selection device (108) for controlling flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle (100), comprising: a landing position information receiving portion (201) that receives a landing position of the unmanned aerial vehicle (100); a vehicle body position information receiving portion (202, 301) that receives the current position of the unmanned aerial vehicle (100); a scanned data receiving portion (203, 302) capable of receiving three-dimensional scanned data on a scanned target acquired by scanning by a laser scanner (101) comprised in the unmanned aerial vehicle (100); a scan map creating portion (204, 303) that creates a three-dimensional map based on the three-dimensional scanned data received by the scanned data receiving portion (203, 302); a no-fly place extracting portion (205) that extracts a no-fly place forming a flight obstacle in the three-dimensional map; and a path selecting portion (206) that selects, in the three-dimensional map, a flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle (100) which is from the current position to the landing position of the unmanned aerial vehicle (100) and in which the no-fly place can be avoided.
