7. A method of an autonomous neighborhood multi-copter comprising:
-
associating the autonomous neighborhood multi-copter with a non-transient location; determining, through a commerce server of a neighborhood communication system, that a destination, which is in a neighborhood specified by the commerce server using a peer-to-peer network of client side devices in the neighborhood that are geo-constrained to a location of a defined neighborhood and which is in a threshold radial distance from the non-transient location, is received by the autonomous neighborhood multi-copter through the peer-to-peer wireless network; determining an optimal route from a current location of the autonomous neighborhood multi-copter to the destination; traveling autonomously on the optimal route to the destination; periodically determining, through a processor, the current location of the autonomous neighborhood multi-copter; communicating the current location of the autonomous neighborhood multi-copter to the commerce server; and automatically activating a set of light emitting diodes encompassing the autonomous neighborhood multi-copter when a light sensor detects that an environmental brightness is below a threshold luminosity. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
