US Patent 10249200 Deployable delivery guidance

Delivery area guidance may be provided to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) via one or more delivery area guidance vehicles. For example, a UAV may be programmed to fly to a delivery area (e.g., a neighborhood, a block, a large residential or commercial property, and/or another area associated with landing and/or a delivery). Approaching the delivery area, the UAV may deploy one or more delivery area guidance vehicles. A guidance vehicle may be configured to maneuver a distance from the UAV, and to assist in guiding the UAV into the delivery area to the UAV.
