Wireless communication device for communicating with an unmanned aerial vehicle
First Claim
1. A wireless communication device, the device comprising:
- a housing;
a touch sensitive display integrally included within the housing;
multiple radio frequency transceivers included within the housing, wherein a first radio frequency transceiver communicates with an unmanned aerial vehicle and a second radio frequency transceiver communicates with a network;
multiple input mechanisms included with the housing that are physically engageable for manual manipulation by a user separate from manipulation of the housing; and
a processor included within the housing, wherein the processor is configured to;
obtain, via the first radio frequency transceiver, visual information captured by an image capture subsystem of the unmanned aerial vehicle;
display the visual information via the touch sensitive display;
detect parameter values of parameters of a touch on the touch sensitive display, the parameter values of the touch including a location value specifying a location of the touch on the touch sensitive display and/or a pressure value specifying a pressure of the touch on the touch sensitive display;
determine a first set of inputs based upon the parameter values of the parameters of the touch on the touch sensitive display;
receive a second set of inputs when one or more of the multiple input mechanisms are physically engaged; and
effectuate transmission, via the first radio frequency transceiver, of instructions to the unmanned aerial vehicle based upon the first set of inputs and/or the second set of inputs, the instructions being configured to adjust flight controls and/or adjust the image capture subsystem of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

Abstract
A wireless communication device may include a housing, a touch sensitive display integrally included within the housing, multiple radio frequency transceivers included within the housing, multiple input mechanisms included within the housing, and a processor included within the housing. The processor may be configured to obtain visual information captured by an image capture subsystem of the unmanned aerial vehicle, display the visual information via the touch sensitive display, detect parameters of a touch on the touch sensitive display, determine a first set of inputs based upon the parameters of the touch on the touch sensitive display, receive a second set of inputs when one or more of the multiple input mechanisms are engaged, effectuate transmission, via a first radio frequency transceiver, of instructions to the unmanned aerial vehicle based upon the first set of inputs and/or the second set of inputs.
