  • Patent number: 11857324
    Abstract: A system for monitoring the operational status of an aircraft crew includes a unit for determining at least one pilot state based on first monitoring data of a high design assurance level and second monitoring data of a lower design assurance level. The determination unit includes a first evaluation module capable of obtaining a high-level pilot state from the first data, regardless of the second data; a second evaluation module capable of determining a low-level pilot state, from at least the second data; and a consolidation module for determining a consolidated pilot state. The consolidated pilot state is obtained as a function of the high-level pilot state and the low-level pilot state.

  • Publication number: 20220245537
    Abstract: A system is (10) for determining a flight rest scenario for an aircraft crew (12) comprising at least two pilots able to fly the aircraft (12) during a flight. The system (10) comprises a display device (16) comprising a screen (20), a module (32) for acquiring flight context and constraints inputs, and a module (34) for determining at least one crew rest scenario for the flight from the acquired inputs. The determination module (34) is able to determine the rest scenario from at least one simulation by a biomathematical fatigue model having at least one of the acquired inputs as variables. The system also includes a display management module (36) configured to display the determined rest scenario on the screen (20) of the display device (16).

  • Patent number: 10814984
    Abstract: A device for waking up a crew member resting on an aircraft includes a processing unit configured to detect current development parameters of the aircraft and/or to detect a state of consciousness of at least one other active crewmember. The processing unit is also configured to activate an apparatus for waking up the resting crew member, when at least one predetermined condition for waking up the resting crew member on one or several current parameters of the aircraft and/or on a parameter representative of the state of consciousness of the at least one other active crew member is satisfied.

  • Patent number: 10580316
    Abstract: A system for controlling a trajectory of an aircraft on the ground, includes a determining module configured to determine a current trajectory of the aircraft on the ground including a series of waypoints planned for an element of the aircraft with unchanged conditions of the lateral movement devices of the aircraft, and at least one limit trajectory, including a series of limit waypoints that may be reached by the element by actuating at least one lateral movement device. The system includes a display assembly comprising a viewer configured to display a view (200) of a runway portion located near the aircraft, and a display generating module configured to display, on the viewer, a current trajectory curve (202) representative of the current trajectory and at least one limit curve (204a, 204b, 206a, 206b) representative of the limit trajectory, superimposed on the view (200).
