AUTONOMOUS DRONE SERVICE SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An autonomous drone service system that controls at least one drone vehicle configured to autonomously navigate along a flight path, the autonomous drone service system comprising:
- an electronic service provider device in signal communication with the at least one drone vehicle and at least one electronic user device to receive at least one service request signal indicating at least one requested service provided by the drone service system be performed at one or more locations input by a user of the at least one electronic user device, the electronic service provider device including an electronic microprocessor having electronic memory that stores computer readable instructions that when executed by the microprocessor automatically maps the at least one requested service to the at least one drone vehicle, and commands the at least one drone vehicle to perform the service request at the one or more locations.

Abstract
An autonomous drone service system controls at least one drone vehicle configured to autonomously navigate along a flight path to provide one or more services requested by a user. The system includes an electronic service provider device to receive at least one service request signal generated by a user device. The request signal indicates at least one requested service provided by the drone service system and location or locations associated with the requested services. The electronic service provider device that automatically maps the at least one requested service to the at least one drone vehicle, and commands the at least one drone vehicle to perform the service request at the one or more locations.

12. An electronic control system that performs at least one service using at least one autonomous drone vehicle included in a drone service system, the control system comprising:
-
an electronic drone identification (ID) database unit that stores ID information identifying at least one registered autonomous drone vehicle included in the drone service system; and an electronic drone selection module in signal communication with an electronic user device to receive a service request for at least one service provided by the drone service system, the drone selection module including an electronic microprocessor having electronic memory that stores computer readable instructions that when executed by the microprocessor determines at least one currently operating drone among the at least one registered autonomous drone vehicle based on a received drone ID, and automatically maps the at least one service request to the at least one currently operating drone vehicle to select at least one drone to perform the service request, and automatically commands the at least one selected drone to perform the service request. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
