Abstract
An apparatus may include a processor configured to process photodiode signal information, which corresponds to a plurality of photodiodes of an aerial vehicle, for example, to identify a plurality of electric currents, which may be generated by the plurality of photodiodes based on energy of a light beam to charge a battery of the aerial vehicle. The processor may be configured to determine a vehicle-position displacement to displace the aerial vehicle based on the plurality of electric currents. The vehicle-position displacement may be configured to adjust a photodiode-beam relative position of the plurality of photodiodes relative to the light beam. The apparatus may include an output to provide position displacement information based on the vehicle-position displacement.
