Ion spraying apparatus, ion spraying system, and ion spraying method
First Claim
1. An ion spraying system comprising:
- an ion spraying apparatus; and
a control apparatus,wherein the control apparatus comprises;
a camera configured tocapture an image,recognize objects contacted by a person based on the image captured by the camera of the control apparatus, andmeasure a number of contacts made by the person for each of the recognized objects based on the image captured by the camera of the control apparatus;
a processor configured to determine a spray target that is an object on which the ion spraying apparatus is to perform ion-spraying from among the recognized objects based on the measured number of contacts, and generate spraying target information that specifies the spray target; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the spraying target information to a receiver of the ion spraying apparatus,wherein the ion spraying apparatus comprises;
the receiver configured to receive the spraying target information from the transmitter of the control apparatus;
a camera configured to capture an image and detect the spray target indicated in the spraying target information based on the image captured by the camera of the ion spraying apparatus;
a plurality of propellers configured to cause flight of the ion spraying apparatus;
a processor configured to control the flight of the ion spraying apparatus, determine a moving direction of the ion spraying apparatus based on location information on the detected spray target, and control the ion spraying apparatus to perform ion-spraying when a distance between the spray target and the ion spraying apparatus is determined to be within a first threshold value.

Abstract
A communication unit receives spraying target information indicating a spray target. A spraying target detector detects the spray target indicated in the spraying target information in space. A spray control unit is a unit that performs ion-spraying processing on the spray target at a predetermined frequency. In the ion-spraying processing, the spray control unit determines a moving direction of an ion spraying apparatus from a current location to the detected spray target, and sprays ions on the spray target when a distance between the spray target and the ion spraying apparatus is within a first threshold value. A flight control unit controls a flight of the ion spraying apparatus in the moving direction.
