A drone system for orchestration in heterogeneous drone swarms is configured to perform operations comprising receiving, at a lead drone of a drone swarm, from a candidate drone, a request to join the drone swarm; transmitting a swarm directive to the candidate drone; evaluating the candidate drone to determine whether the candidate drone is compatible with the swarm directive; and adjusting the swarm directive to accommodate the candidate drone when the candidate drone is compatible with the swarm directive, to add the candidate drone to the drone swarm.

Orchestration in heterogeneous drone swarms

Disclosed herein is a drone. The drone may comprise a flight mechanism, a receiver, and a navigation transmitter. The flight mechanism may execute a flight maneuver provided by a user. The receiver may receive, from an authority, an interruption signal. The interruption signal may include a command to interrupt the flight maneuver provided by the user. The navigation transmitter may transmit, to the flight mechanism, the command to interrupt the flight maneuver to the flight mechanism.
