POLYHEDRAL GEOFENCES
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An aerial vehicle comprising:
- a propulsion apparatus comprising at least one engine to provide propulsion; and
a controller comprising one or more processors and operably coupled to the propulsion apparatus to control flight of the vehicle, the controller configured to fly the vehicle using the propulsion apparatus based on at least a lidar-data generated polyhedral geofence.

Abstract
Exemplary methods and systems may generate a point cloud data generated polyhedral geofence for use in navigating a vehicle. The polyhedral geofence may be generated, or created, from point cloud data such as lidar data. Further, a vehicle may utilize propulsion devices and controllers for moving the vehicle based on a point map data generated polyhedral geofence.
