System for remote monitoring of an area intended to accommodate at least one passenger of an aeroplane and aeroplane cabin equipped with such a remote monitoring system
The invention relates to a system for remote monitoring of an area intended to accommodate at least one passenger of an aeroplane, notably a cargo area provisionally converted into cabin space, including: at least one control member configured to generate at least one signal relating to the safety of the passenger present in the area, and at least one interface means that is situated at a distance from the area and allows the cabin crew to have access to information relating to the area and/or to the passenger present in the area on the basis of the signal.
1. Remote monitoring system for a cargo area intended to accommodate at least one passenger of an aeroplane, comprising:
at least one control member comprising a sensor, the sensor comprising at least one of:
an automatic presence sensor;
a force sensor;
a microwave sensor; and/or
a gas flow sensor,
wherein the sensor is configured to generate at least one signal relating to the safety of the at least one passenger present in the cargo area by at least one of:
checking a state of a belt of the at least one passenger;
checking a use of an oxygen mask by the at least one passenger;
and/or
monitoring health of the at least one passenger;
wherein the status of the belt, the use of the oxygen mask, and/or the health of the passenger is detected by the sensor, and
at least one interface means intended to be situated at a distance from the cargo area and making it possible for a member of cabin crew to have access to information relating to the cargo area and/or to the passenger present in the cargo area on the basis of the signal,
the signal relating to the safety of the passenger being forwarded to the cabin crew through the interface,
wherein the at least one passenger is a person.
2. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the interface means comprises at least one display means, notably comprising at least one digital device with a screen.
3. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the interface means comprises at least one means to emit at least one audible and/or visual and/or vibratory alert.
4. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the remote monitoring system is configured to permanently update the information relating to the cargo area and/or to the passenger present in the cargo area.
5. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein said remote monitoring system further comprises processing means making it possible to transmit the signal to the interface means.
6. Remote monitoring system according to claim 5 , wherein said remote monitoring system comprises a transmission network making it possible for communication of the signal between the control member and the processing means and/or information relating to the remotely controlled cargo area and/or to the passenger between the processing means and the interface means.
7. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor is a first sensor, wherein the remote monitoring system further comprises a second sensor, the second sensor comprising at least one of a contact sensor, and/or a presence sensor, and/or a force sensor, and/or a temperature sensor, and/or an optical sensor, and/or a microwave sensor, and/or an acoustic sensor, and/or a gas flow sensor, and/or a body sensor, and/or a sound sensor, and/or an image sensor.
8. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the remote monitoring system further comprises means for processing information relating to the remotely controlled cargo area and/or to the passenger.
9. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein the control member comprises an alert button and/or a signaling button.
10. Remote monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein communication means are arranged to make it possible for the cabin crew to be put in contact with the passenger present in the cargo area.
11. Remote monitoring system according to claim 10 , wherein the communication means are configured to function automatically, and/or at the initiative of the cabin crew and/or in interaction between the passenger present in the cargo area and the cabin crew.
12. Remote monitoring system according to claim 10 , wherein the communication means comprise at least one alarm device transmitting a message adapted to all or some of the passengers.
13. Remote monitoring system according to claim 10 , wherein the communication means comprise indicators configured to be activated as the passenger enters the cargo area, notably in order to indicate to them the place that is intended for them.
14. Aeroplane cabin comprising a remote monitoring system according to claim 1 .
15. Remote monitoring system for a cargo area intended to accommodate at least one passenger of an aeroplane, comprising:
at least one control member configured to generate at least one signal relating to the safety of the at least one passenger present in the cargo area; and
at least one interface means intended to be situated at a distance from the cargo area and making it possible for a member of cabin crew to have access to information relating to the cargo area and/or to the passenger present in the cargo area on the basis of the signal, wherein the at least one control member comprises at least one sensor chosen among:
a contact sensor; and/or
an automatic presence sensor; and/or
a force sensor; and/or
a microwave sensor; and/or
a gas flow sensor; and/or
a body sensor,
wherein the at least one sensor is configured to generate the signal relating to the safety of the passenger present in the area based on a status of a belt of the at least one passenger, a use of an oxygen mask by the at least one passenger, and/or a monitored health of the passenger,
wherein the status of the belt, the use of the oxygen mask, and/or the health of the passenger is detected by the sensor, and
the signal relating to the safety of the passenger being forwarded to the cabin crew through the interface.
