Abstract:
A method, preferably including: sampling inputs, determining aircraft conditions, and/or acting based on the aircraft conditions. A method, preferably including: sampling inputs, determining input reliability, determining guidance, and/or controlling aircraft operation. A method, preferably including: operating the vehicle, planning for contingencies, detecting undesired flight conditions, and/or reacting to undesired flight conditions. A system, preferably an aircraft such as a rotorcraft, configured to implement the method.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of aircraft operation, comprising, at an aircraft, while autonomously controlling the aircraft to fly:\n at a first set of sensors of the aircraft, sampling a first set of sensor data, wherein the first set of sensors comprises a first sensor of a first sensor type; substantially concurrent with sampling the first set of sensor data, at a second set of sensors of the aircraft, sampling a second set of sensor data, wherein:\n the second set of sensors comprises a second sensor of a second sensor type different than the first sensor type; and \n the second set of sensors does not comprise the first sensor; \n based on the first set of sensor data, determining primary guidance for aircraft control; based on the second set of sensor data, determining auxiliary guidance for aircraft control; based on the second set of sensor data, determining that the primary guidance is undesirable; and in response to determining that the primary guidance is undesirable, controlling the aircraft based on the auxiliary guidance and not based on the primary guidance.
