Vision-guided laser beaming powers remote vehicles
To power a UAV in-flight, LaserMotive has developed a system to transmit laser light from a ground station to a photovoltaic receiver on a UAV. Reflected light from the UAV is then captured and used to monitor its position and dynamically control the laser to deliver the power to the correct position
