METHOD, VEHICLE AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSFERRING AT LEAST ONE PAYLOAD BETWEEN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES FOR TRANSPORTING SAID PAYLOAD
The present invention pertains to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), commonly referred to as drones, and in particular concerns the use thereof as means for transporting payloads such as orders. The present invention concerns a method that solves the problem of how to automatically transfer orders to a payload delivery system with multiple drones, thereby efficiently reducing battery-related range constraints. The method includes a first vehicle (11) with a first trajectory (31) and a second vehicle (12) with a second trajectory (32) that have at least one shared partial trajectory th, the partial trajectory th being in the middle of the first trajectory and the second trajectory and comprising a plurality of intermediate points h located between each of the initial pointsi 1 <i />and i 2 and each of the end points f 1 and f 2 respectively, in which the transfer is made within the partial trajectory th.
