A system for executing an operation on an object (O) by means of a fleet of drones (20) equipped with tools for executing said operation. The system comprises: - processing means (10) adapted to receive as input information for calculating the trajectories required for bringing the fleet of drones (20) into the desired position for the execution of said operation, wherein said processing means (10) are adapted to transmit flight trajectories and instructions for executing the operation on the object (O) to said fleet of drones (20), - a local positioning system (L) comprising a plurality of anchor nodes in Ultra- Wide- Band technology (UWB-A1,UWB-A2,UWB-A3,UWB-Ax,UWB-AN) arranged around said object (O) along the sides of the surfaces of the ideal polyhedron that circumscribes the object (O). Each drone (20) of said fleet is equipped with: - a UWB transceiver (26) in communication with said anchor nodes (UWB-A1,UWB- A2,UWB-A3,UWB-Ax,UWB-AN), wherein each drone (20) is at all times in communication with at least four anchor nodes (UWB-A1,UWB-A2,UWB-A3,UWB- Ax,UWB-AN), and - a plurality of ultrasound sensors (24) for measuring the distance of each drone (20) from the other drones and from obstacles, wherein said fleet of drones (20), by following the way points (WP) of said trajectories sent by said processing means (10), executes said operation on said object (O) by means of said tools.

Abstract

A system for executing an operation on an object (O) by means of a fleet of drones (20) equipped with tools for executing said operation. The system comprises: - processing means (10) adapted to receive as input information for calculating the trajectories required for bringing the fleet of drones (20) into the desired position for the execution of said operation, wherein said processing means (10) are adapted to transmit flight trajectories and instructions for executing the operation on the object (O) to said fleet of drones (20), - a local positioning system (L) comprising a plurality of anchor nodes in Ultra- Wide- Band technology (UWB-A1,UWB-A2,UWB-A3,UWB-Ax,UWB-AN) arranged around said object (O) along the sides of the surfaces of the ideal polyhedron that circumscribes the object (O). Each drone (20) of said fleet is equipped with: - a UWB transceiver (26) in communication with said anchor nodes (UWB-A1,UWB- A2,UWB-A3,UWB-Ax,UWB-AN), wherein each drone (20) is at all times in communication with at least four anchor nodes (UWB-A1,UWB-A2,UWB-A3,UWB- Ax,UWB-AN), and - a plurality of ultrasound sensors (24) for measuring the distance of each drone (20) from the other drones and from obstacles, wherein said fleet of drones (20), by following the way points (WP) of said trajectories sent by said processing means (10), executes said operation on said object (O) by means of said tools.
