Unmanned air vehicle, integrated weapon platform, avionics system and control method

This invention describes a specific method for enhancing the autonomous control of a vehicle, such as a drone. It involves organizing sensor data into a spherical database, from which multiple independent "windows" or volumetric slices can be viewed and processed simultaneously. The control system also incorporates specific pilot interaction modalities, like eye movements, to guide the vehicle.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of advanced parallel processing and sophisticated eye-tracking technology. The complex spherical data organization and pilot interaction modalities are now far more feasible with current computing power and sensor capabilities.
