Abstract
In one implementation, a method activates an unmanned aircraft inside a vehicle to capture images of the vehicle interior. The method accesses a flight path for the unmanned aircraft and receives data associated with the vehicle's current movement. The method adjusts the flight path of the unmanned aircraft to compensate for the vehicle's current movement.
