Airlines may soon have new ground-breaking technology for cabin crew to track and record how much alcohol a passenger has drunk during a flight, so they can judge whether or not to serve them.
The InteliSence system, developed by Collins Aerospace, was created primarily to help maintenance crews monitor the plane’s systems, however, developers have said it can be altered to improve passengers’ in-flight experience.
Collins Aerospace’s vice president of cabin experience, Mark Vaughan, said: “InteliSence is how we can improve passenger experience by providing an intelligent, connected system that communicates the service needs of passengers in real-time for tailored customisation, and an enhanced number of meaningful interactions between crew and passengers.”
“The system can also monitor and report system health back to the ground, providing operators the data necessary to proactively mitigate faults quickly, more efficiently and predictively.”
Aviation Today said: “InteliSence aims to modernize the onboard experience through the use of sensors and AI technology.”
Drunk and unruly passengers on flights have become a major headache for airlines and other passengers over the last couple of years, and this technology could help put a stop to it.”
