0105: Sub-mother UAV - Honeycomb System Initial Version (1)
A drone hovers high in the sky, just like the alien mothership in "Heavenly Evil" when it descends on the earth, opening the cabin in the air, and a group of small drones swarms out, spreading out in all directions, whistling and flying in the sky, controlling every movement in the entire city......
After secretly enjoying himself for a few minutes, Lin Chen reluctantly pulled his scattered thoughts back from Qili's fantasy.
Glancing at the situation upstairs, he pouted helplessly when he saw that the chaotic battle between the few people above was still continuing.
"Nima, why are these people's energy so good? It's not over after tossing for so long, are they all beaten with chicken blood and swallowed small pills? ”
Lin Chen muttered very dissatisfied, expressing his dissatisfaction with the big battle upstairs, and then had to turn his attention back to his drone plan.
There was no way, he wanted to "eavesdrop" on the conversation of a few people upstairs, so he could only lie on the sand and obediently maintain a posture of looking at the sky.
Of course, he took off the holographic glasses and put them next to him, as long as he found something to hold the glasses, so that the hologlasses kept the posture facing upwards, and he could also record the conversation of several people upstairs.
Although he could not see the beamsplitter lenses on the holographic glasses, he could still see the picture projected by the holographic glasses in the development mode, but the effect would be much worse, and he would be easily disturbed by dust and other light in the air, so that he could no longer see the image projected by the holographic glasses clearly.
What's more, Lin Chen felt that the posture of lying on the sand was quite comfortable. It's too lazy to toss. As for the upstairs scene, he just didn't pay attention to it.
"Amu, open the Shadow Network. See if anyone sells some powerful drones on it. "Lin Chen has recently gotten a lot of good things back on the virtual network, and now when he thinks of what more advanced equipment parts he wants to buy, he naturally wants to take a look at the virtual network.
He thinks that things with a certain technical content such as drones may be able to find some more advanced and high-end models on the virtual network where a lot of "great power" is gathered.
But this time, the all-encompassing virtual shadow network disappointed Lin Chen.
Most of the drones for sale on the virtual shadow network are common road goods. Whether it is the style and modeling, or the performance parameters in all aspects, they are ordinary. It looked pretty much the same as what he had occasionally seen on some online shopping sites before.
After rummaging through all the drones sold on the Phantom Network, Lin Chen couldn't find a product that satisfied him.
Although he still saw some more distinctive drones when he was rummaging, there were some things that more or less did not meet his ideas.
It's like a drone with strong performance. It can even hang two "Hellfire missiles" under the belly of the aircraft, allowing the controller to remotely aim and shoot from hundreds of miles away.
But this kind of thing, he can't use it when he buys it! The seller only sells drones and does not deliver missiles, so what can he do when he buys them?
The other unmanned helicopter has a take-off weight of 800 kilograms, a mission load of more than 120 kilograms, a maximum level flight of 200 kilometers per hour, a maximum range of 300 kilometers, and a flight time of up to five hours.
The performance of this unmanned helicopter in all respects is almost close to that of a real helicopter. It looks very good, and it can almost completely meet Lin Chen's requirements.
It's just that the size of this drone is also extremely close to a real helicopter. It is nine meters long, more than two meters wide, and more than two meters high.
Can such a huge guy be used to track and spy on others?
I'm afraid that before I can take a picture of the target's appearance, someone else will show it.
Lin Chen thought about it for a while, and then gave up this big guy.
Of course, there are still some small and exquisitely made micro drones on the virtual network.
There is a micro-drone that is as small as a fly. It itself is designed to be used exclusively for tracking surveillance and candid photography.
But because it's too small, there's only one camera on it. And it can't fly too far......
Until he looked through all the drones sold on the Phantom Network, the drones were either wrong here or there, in short, Lin Chen couldn't find a drone on it that completely matched his ideas.
So he began to think about whether to buy a few drones with barely passable size and basic performance, and then he did the modification himself.
Lin Chen has special requirements for the drone he wants, and there is no spot on the market that fully meets his requirements, and if you find someone to customize it, I don't know when you will be able to get it.
After all, it is impossible for others to be like him, with a smart and capable artificial intelligence that obeys his command and dispatches, and serves him anytime and anywhere.
In a very short period of time, according to his ideas and existing things, a complete set of manufacturing modification plans can be designed.
Lin Chen sorted out his ideas a little, calculating what kind of drones and modified accessories he needed to buy to transform the kind of sub-drone in his mind.
First of all, the mother machine of the load sub-aircraft needs a drone that is not too large in size but can carry loads and wear objects for long-distance flight as the main body of the parent machine.
After Lin Chen decided to modify it himself, the requirements for those drones sold in stock were naturally reduced.
So he soon found a drone on the Phantom Network, which was suitable for use as a mother aircraft.
It's an eight-rotor drone drone with eight rotors, and it looks like a skinny eight-pointed starfish.
There is a quadrangular cabin in the middle, which is used to place batteries and controllers and other equipment, and there is a thin arm in each of the eight directions of the cabin, which unfolds to form a rice shape, which looks very sci-fi style.
The eight arms can also be folded down, and with the folding paddle at the end of the upper arm, the volume of the whole machine can be minimized, which is very convenient for transportation and carrying.
Moreover, this kind of drone is only more than one meter in diameter when flying, as long as you pay attention to hiding tracks when flying, it should not be easy to be seen.
In addition, the weight of this eight-rotor drone is less than five kilograms, but it can carry six kilograms of weight to fly, which makes Lin Chen particularly satisfied.
After selecting the main body of the mother machine, Lin Chen began to carefully screen the smaller child machine.
The main role of the sub-aircraft is to be responsible for tracking and monitoring the target, which needs to be a small but flexible flight model, and it must be able to load a group of cameras with different functions, so as to realize the tracking and monitoring of the target in different environments and different situations.
So after rummaging for a while, Lin Chen finally settled on a quadcopter that was only half the size of a palm.
After determining the main body of the mother machine and the child machine, he then began to think about some details of buying it back and modifying it himself.
One is the flight distance of these UAVs, that is, the maximum range of the UAV, which determines the maximum monitoring range of the UAV.
The two models he chose were powered by motors, and he only needed to buy the drone back and replace it with a battery with a larger storage capacity.
Of course, these batteries must be lightweight and not heavy enough to make the drone unable to fly.
Then there is the issue of the remote control distance of the drone.
Like the drone he chose as the mother aircraft, the farthest remote control distance is only a few thousand meters, which cannot meet Lin Chen's requirements at all, but for this problem, he has already thought of a very trouble-free and effective solution, that is, to replace the remote control equipment originally used by the drone with a mobile phone.
Then there is the control system, because the small size of the handset does not allow it to wear a large number of equipment.
Lin Chen looked at the performance parameters of the handset, and after a simple calculation, he concluded that after installing a few cameras on the handset, it should not be possible to install more digital processing equipment.
This situation greatly limited the functionality of the handset, and it was impossible to fully implement his idea.
Fortunately, in this case, he had encountered similar problems when designing modified holographic glasses before.
At that time, due to the size of the glasses, there was no way to install more processing equipment in the glasses, but this time it was limited by weight.
Although these two cases are slightly different, one is weight and the other is volume, but they are basically similar, both are not sufficient for the load capacity of the carrier.
Therefore, Lin Chen quickly thought of a simple and effective solution, that is, to use a mother machine with a strong load capacity to make a processing center and a transit command center.
This is equivalent to providing a brain for the small children, which is responsible for providing them with digital support and relay control instructions.
The last issue to consider is the endurance of these sub-drones.
According to Lin Chen's thoughts, after these sub-mother drones are released, it is likely that they will need to track and monitor the target outside for a long time, and they cannot be retracted often for charging.
These drones are completely powered to fly and operate, and if they run out of power, they won't be able to do any work.
And once there is no power when tracking and monitoring the target outside, the drone flying in the sky will have to fall to the ground and fall to pieces.
This will not only cause the loss of the drone, but also likely to affect the effect of tracking and surveillance, so that the target will be out of the monitoring, and even the target will feel that someone is using the drone to track and monitor his actions.
Therefore, the power supply of drones has become a big problem that must be solved.
"Charge, charge...... How do you charge the drone that is released? ”
Lin Chen frowned and asked to himself, his brain was also spinning high, trying to find a way to solve the problem of replenishing power for the drone in time.
At this time, a ray of sunset rays shone in through the window, reflecting the ceiling in front of him by the various smooth objects and utensils in the hall.
"Light!"
Suddenly flickered by this sudden golden red light, Lin Chen's eyes immediately lit up, and an excellent idea flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but slap it on his own leg with great joy...... (To be continued)
