发明名称 Navigating a UAV to a next waypoint
摘要 Methods, systems, and products for navigating a UAV are provided. Embodiments include determining a current position of the UAV, determining a current flying pattern of the UAV, determining a next waypoint, and calculating a new heading to navigate to the next waypoint in dependence upon the current position, the current pattern, and a transition factor. Determining a next waypoint may be carried out by receiving in a remote control device a user's selection of a GUI map pixel that represents a waypoint for UAV navigation, the pixel having a location on the GUI and mapping the pixel's location on the GUI to Earth coordinates of the waypoint.
