1. An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), configured to:
- navigate to a first location point from a plurality of location points, the plurality of location points defining a flight pattern;
receive a set of location coordinates of a moving object;
determine the distance between the moving object and the UAV based on the set of location coordinates of the moving object and the first location point of the UAV; and
when the distance between the moving object and the UAV reaches a pre-determined threshold, advance to a second location point from the plurality of location points.

Abstract
In some embodiments, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is configured to navigate to a first location point from a plurality of location points. The plurality of location points defines a flight pattern. The UAV is further configured to receive a set of location coordinates of a moving object. The UAV is configured to determine the distance between the moving object and the UAV based on the set of location coordinates of the moving object and the first location point of the UAV. When the distance between the moving object and the UAV reaches a pre-determined threshold, the UAV is configured to advance to a second location point from the plurality of location points.
