Aircraft Passenger Activity Monitoring

A passenger activity monitoring system for an aircraft cabin, the system comprising:

• a first set of sensors disposed in seat bottoms of a plurality of passenger seats;
• a second set of sensors disposed in seat belts a plurality of passenger seats;
• a crew display disposed in a galley area of an aircraft;
• processing circuitry operably coupled to the first set of sensors, the second set of sensors and the crew display, the processing circuitry configured to execute a plurality of machine-readable instructions stored to a non-transitory computer readable medium, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processing circuitry, cause the processing circuitry to
• receive, from the first set of sensors, signals associated with the presence or absence of a passenger at a respective seat position,
• receive, from the second set of sensors, signals associated with a buckling status of a passenger seat belt at a respective seat position,
• store, in a non-transitory computer readable data store, real-time information about the presence or absence of a passenger at a respective seat position and the buckling status of a passenger seat belt at a respective seat position, wherein the stored information is uniquely associated with the respective passenger seats of the plurality of passenger seats,
• transmit, to the crew display, a notification of noncompliance based on the presence or absence of a passenger at a respective seat position and the buckling status of a passenger seat belt at a respective seat position, and
• cause display, at the crew display, of the notification and an indication of a seat position associated with the notification.
