Abstract
A pilot monitoring system is configured to monitor the current status of an aircraft, and determine if the pilot is likely experiencing perception-based incapacitation. Based on accumulated data, certain aircraft states (control positions, flight phase, etc.) can be associated with a likelihood of perception-based incapacitation. The system may characterize pilot inputs during periods of likely perception-based incapacitation, and take remedial action when actual perception-based incapacitation is identified.
Claims20
A computer apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor in data communication with a memory storing processor executable code for configuring the at least one processor to:
- receive inputs from a flight management system;
- determine, based on the inputs from the flight management system, that an aircraft is in a state likely to result in perception-based incapacitation;
- and
- execute a remedial action to mitigate the perception-based incapacitation.

An aircraft comprising:
- a flight management system;
- and
- at least one processor in data communication with the flight management system and a memory storing processor executable code for configuring the at least one processor to:
- receive inputs from the flight management system;
- determine, based on the inputs from the flight management system, that the aircraft is in a state likely to result in perception-based incapacitation;
- and
- execute a remedial action to mitigate the perception-based incapacitation.
