Patent attributes
The present invention provides a stackable drone and a drone swarm comprising at least two stackable drones. Each drone comprising: a fuselage comprising a first end and a second end; a mating structure arranged in the fuselage and configured to have an opening at the first end of the fuselage, the mating structure forming a mating recess on a first side of the fuselage, the mating recess having an opening at the first side of the fuselage for receiving a mating projection from a further stacking unmanned aerial vehicle. The stackable drones do not require a large area of ground for take-off and landing, require only a small space for storage and transportation. When landing, based on the conical or pyramidal structure, the drone may slide down by gravitational force into the mating recess of another drone thereunder without needs of high precision positioning or alignment system.
