| description | Methods and apparatus (100) to guide an unmanned aerial vehicle for recovery thereof are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus (100) to recover an aircraft (120) or a payload (125) thereof includes a tether line (108), and markers (110, 402, 404, 410, 412, 420, 430, 440) supported by the tether line (108) at different positions of the tether line (108), the markers (110, 402, 404, 410, 412, 420, 430, 440) to be detected by the aircraft (120), the aircraft (120) to be guided to engage the tether line (108) by determining positions of the markers (110, 402, 404, 410, 412, 420, 430, 440) and calculating a position of at least a portion of the tether line (108) based on the determined position of the markers (110, 402, 404, 410, 412, 420, 430, 440). |
