Abstract
A method for setting a target flight path of an aircraft in a physical environment, the method includes: displaying a virtual three-dimensional model corresponding to the physical environment; setting a start point in the virtual three-dimensional model according to a user input indicative of a position of the start point; continuously tracking a trajectory of a physical object moved in a space corresponding to the virtual three-dimensional model while displaying within the virtual three-dimensional model a continuous path corresponding to the trajectory of the physical object from the start point; setting an end point of the continuous path in the virtual three-dimensional model according to a user input indicative of a position of the end point; and generating the target flight path of the aircraft in the physical environment based on the continuous path from the start point to the end point in the virtual three-dimensional model.
