Apparatuses for securing drones during transport and methods of use

robots   patent

The trend for lower profile ‘belly landing’ drones created opportunities to stow them in new locations on the vehicle. Patent coauthor Nelson had the brilliant idea to gaffer-tape a cardboard box to the underside of the moonroof and launch a drone out of it. At the time we were very interested in tethered drones. Full patent here.
