Claim 1

1. An apparatus for operating an electronic detonator blaster with an integrated flight function, the apparatus comprising: a blasting command transmission part configured to transmit a blasting command to each of electronic detonators which are combined with a flying vehicle capable of being flown and controlled by induction of radio waves and are connected to each other; a connection control part configured to release the connection of the flying vehicle with the electronic detonators when the transmission of the blasting command is completed; a flight control part configured to control the flying vehicle to land at a preset return point after ascending to a preset altitude when the connection of the flying vehicle with the electronic detonators is completely released; and a distress notification part notifying of a current location of the electronic detonator blaster by transmitting a beacon signal including received GPS coordinates and transmitting at least one of sound and light-emitting signals when receiving a response signal to the beacon signal to when it is determined that the electronic detonator blaster is in distress. a blasting command transmission part configured to transmit a blasting command to each of electronic detonators which are combined with a flying vehicle capable of being flown and controlled by induction of radio waves and are connected to each other; a connection control part configured to release the connection of the flying vehicle with the electronic detonators when the transmission of the blasting command is completed; a flight control part configured to control the flying vehicle to land at a preset return point after ascending to a preset altitude when the connection of the flying vehicle with the electronic detonators is completely released; and a distress notification part notifying of a current location of the electronic detonator blaster by transmitting a beacon signal including received GPS coordinates and transmitting at least one of sound and light-emitting signals when receiving a response signal to the beacon signal to when it is determined that the electronic detonator blaster is in distress.
