Abstract

A system may include one or more optical sensors configured to capture one of an image feed or a video feed of a passenger and a controller communicatively coupled to the plurality of sensors. The controller may be configured to: receive a set of sensor data from the plurality of sensors; determine a first sleep state of the passenger; determine a first set of controls associated with the first sleep state; provide the first set of controls associated with the first sleep state to the at least one aircraft environment sub-system automatically, in near real-time; determine a second sleep state of the passenger; determine a second set of controls associated with the second sleep state; and provide the second set of controls associated with the second sleep state to the at least one aircraft environment sub-system automatically, in near real-time.
