Method for controlling unmanned aircraft, server, and remote control device

This invention describes a system for remotely managing a drone. It allows an authorized user to send commands to the drone's remote control device to lock the drone, making it inoperable, and then unlock it when needed. The system can also restrict access to only authorized operators and evaluate the drone's performance after it completes a task.

Why it matters: Since 2022, regulatory demands for drone accountability and secure remote operation have intensified. This invention's remote locking and access control features are now more relevant as drone fleet management systems and communication link technologies have matured, simplifying integration of such security protocols.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, communication protocols, custom drone firmware
