Abstract:
An unmanned aerial vehicle (“UAV) damage mitigation system includes a drone housing, a processor, a memory, an inertial measurement unit (“IMU”), and associated electronics configured to determine if the drone is experiencing a failure event or is in danger of crashing. If such a failure is indicated, then the drone includes a parachute, alarm, and programming intended to mitigate or minimize damage to people and property on the ground. The UAV damage mitigation system also includes a mobile software application that is notified if the drone is experiencing a catastrophic event, and is notified of all other aerial vehicles in a proximity to the drone housing.

Claim (Index 13):
An unmanned aerial vehicle (\u201cUAV\u201d) damage mitigation system for mitigating damages caused by catastrophic failure of the UAV, comprising:\n a drone housing having a lift system for lifting and propelling said drone housing into ambient air; an inertial measurement unit (\u201cIMU\u201d) associated with said drone housing that is configured to detect and generate rate of acceleration data and angular rotation data regarding motion of said drone housing; a processor positioned in said drone housing and in data communication with said IMU so as to receive said generated acceleration data and said angular rotation data; wherein said processor is programmed to use said generated acceleration data and said angular rotation data to detect when said speed and angular data determined by said accelerometer is indicative of an impending crash of said drone housing; an alarm coupled to the drone housing and in data communication with said processor; wherein said processor is programmed to energize said alarm when the impending crash is imminent; a parachute coupled to said drone housing for slowing a descent of said drone housing when deployed, said parachute being movable between a stowed configuration inside said drone housing and a deployed configuration extending from said drone housing; wherein said processor is programmed to energize a deployment of said parachute when said failure event or said impending crash is detected; a global position satellite (GPS) module positioned in said drone housing and in data communication with said processor, said GPS module configured to continuously determine and log global location data associated with said drone housing; and a telecommunications module in data communication with said processor and configured to transmit telephonic, email, or satellite signals when energized; wherein said processor is programmed to energize said telecommunications module to transmit said location data to a remote receiver associated with said mobile software application.
