Systems and methods for managing unmanned vehicle interactions with various payloads

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a method for improving, or even optimizing, flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) including a payload, the method including receiving one or more human-initiated flight instructions. Embodiments may also include determining a UAV context based at least in part on Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) data from the UAV. Embodiments may also include receiving payload-identification data. Embodiments may also include accessing a laden-flight profile based at least in part on the payload-identification data. Embodiments may also include determining one or more laden-flight parameters. In some embodiments, the one or more laden-flight parameters may be based at least in part on the one or more human-initiated flight instructions, the UAV context, and the laden-flight profile.
