Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Provided is a flight device that performs, on the basis of a determination that a distance to another flight device is within a predetermined distance, a predetermined avoidance action to avoid the other flight device.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A flight device configured to perform, on the basis of a determination that the flight device is within a structure and that a distance to another flight device that is within the structure is within a predetermined distance, an avoidance action of avoiding the other flight device, wherein the flight device comprises a storage in which information on a position of an evacuation space is stored, the evacuation space having a width based on a width of the flight device, a width of the other flight device and a width of the structure, and the flight device is configured to control, as the avoidance action, such that the flight device moves to the evacuation space to evacuate. 2. The flight device according to claim 1 , comprising a controller configured to perform the avoidance action of avoiding the other flight device on the basis of the determination. 3. The flight device according to claim 2 , comprising a communication interface configured to receive information on a position of the other flight device, wherein, the controller performs a determination as to whether or not a distance to the other flight device is within the predetermined distance on the basis of information on a position of the flight device and information on the position of the other flight device received by the communication interface. 4. The flight device according to claim 2 , comprising a proximity sensor configured to detect approach of the other flight device, wherein the controller performs the determination on the basis of a result detected by the proximity sensor. 5. The flight device according to claim 1 , wherein the flight device is remotely controlled to perform the avoidance action to avoid the other flight device on the basis of the determination. 6. The flight device according to claim 1 , wherein the evacuation space is provided to the structure for the flight device to evacuate. 7. A method for controlling a flight device, comprising: a determination step of determining whether or not the flight device is within a structure and that a distance from the flight device to another flight device that is within the structure is within a predetermined distance; a storing step of storing, in a storage, information on a position of an evacuation space having a width based on a width of the flight device, a width of the other flight device and a width of the structure; and an avoidance step of performing, on the basis of a determination in the determination step, an avoidance action in which the flight device avoids the other flight device such that the flight device moves to the evacuation space to evacuate. 8. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing computer program instructions, which when executed by a flight device, cause a computer to execute: determine a determination of whether or not the flight device is within a structure and that a distance from the flight device to another flight device that is within the structure is within a predetermined distance; store, in a storage, information on a position of an evacuation space having a width based on a width of the flight device, a width of the other flight device and a width of the structure; and perform, on the basis of the determination an avoidance action in which the flight device avoids the other flight device such that the flight device moves to the evacuation space to evacuate.
