When the user touches the object to be interrupted of the image displayed on the touch panel of the user terminal 170, the control module 134 causes the laser distance measurer 106 to measure the distance by irradiating the object to be controlled with the laser, (100) to move to the position where the laser is reflected. Therefore, the drones 100 fly in the automatic flight mode 134b for tracking while maintaining a certain distance from the Chinese line to be interrupted.

However, in addition to the laser system, infrared ray induction system, radar guidance system, image tracking system, etc. can be adopted to automatically track the objects to be controlled.

The control module 134 controls the remaining power of the battery pack 105 and the distance between the drones and the control room to allow the drone 100 to return to a predetermined position before the battery is discharged, To the extent that it is possible. This can greatly enhance the survival of the drones at the scene of the incident and help them to resolve the case quickly.

In the present invention, the solar panel 140 and the charging module 141 may be installed on the upper surface of the drone 100 so that the battery pack 105 can be charged while flying.
