Seed Eco-Home Drones

These are the types of drones that OSE is interested in developing and using.

Aerial

• Surveying - aerial photographs of the property
• Photogrammetry - actual elevation surveying for land elevation
• Tree cover and plant growth - NVDI imaging
• Augmented vision for construction -
• Internet range extension in the form of flying repeaters. Long distance LAN networking with self-landing, self-charging operation
• Fixed wing, tailsitter, VTOL fixed wing, copter versions
• Terrestrial drone aerial drone carrier - for range extension, charging on Slow Solar Operation

Features

• Solar powered charging
• Solar in-flight charging - rollout flexible PV panel
• Automated landing pad with automated charging
• Swarming - around a master drone, each drone repeats same action as master drone, programmable for specific distance between drones

Terrestrial

• Automated grading bulldozers
• Remote control and mission planned tractors for earthworks
• Automated pond digger
• Mission planned posthole digger
• Geofenced mowing robots
• Remote control forestry vehicles
• Automated brick delivery robots for CEB construction - carrying bricks for wall laying
• RTK GPS precision backhoe for digging square holes, trenches, and precision earthworks
• SSO delivery drones

Features

• Geofencing
• Swarming - communicating between units to divide up a task or to multiplex the same task
• Accurate RTK GPS positioning for elevation for keyline plowing and swaling

Marine

• Solar powered autonomous-capable container ships

Space

• Satellites and satellite constellations for surveying, imaging, and internet delivery

Hybrid

• Superamphibian - amphibious submarine drones which can move on land, under water, swim under water, or ride on top of the water
• Water-landing aerial drones
• Water-based drone carrier for aerial drones - seek and rescue missions

Features

• RFID-locating or tag-locating swarming of aerial drones on a drone carrier
