Drone Trademarks — Definitions
A drone is a vehicle that does not have an on-board human operator. Most drones have some degree of autonomous operation. At least some aspect of a drone’s operation is controlled internally. This requires a computer and software. Vehicles that require a human to control every aspect of operation, such as a hobbyist’s remote controlled airplane, are generally not considered drones.
Most drones use a mixture of autonomous and human control. For example, many drones have the ability to automatically stabilize the vehicles by adjusting control elements and power settings, but a human may be needed to tell the drone where to go.
Aerial drones are also known by several different names and acronyms. Here are the most popular:
- Remotely Piloted Vehicle (RPV)
- Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
- Unmanned Aircraft (UA)
- Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS)
- Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV)
Drone trademark applications are applications that have been filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and that are related to drone products and services. As we use it here, the term “drone” includes any autonomous vehicle. Once a trademark application has been examined and approved and all requirements and formalities have been satisfied, it becomes a registered trademark. Please let us know if we have missed any important trademarks.
