The present disclosure describes a system to facilitate the landing of drones including an eye tracker, an interpreter, and a control system configured to be worn by a person that performs coded moves of their arms and hands during a drone landing operation. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, the eye tracker recognizes the line of sight of the person with respect to a drone, the interpreter identifies the coded moves performed by the person during landing of the drone, and the control system generates a signal to cause a transmitter to rotate into a position so as to establish a direct optical communication link to the drone to which is sent information relating to the identified coded moves.
