Claim 0:
1. A method for self-assessing components of a cargo handling system configured for autonomous control by a processor, comprising:
receiving, by the processor, sensor data from a plurality of sensing agents in operable communication with the processor;
testing, by the processor, the plurality of sensing agents by comparing the sensor data against a sensor assessment; and
performing, by the processor, a first calibration assessment of the plurality of sensing agents to assess whether an operational status of the cargo handling system has occurred due to a failure of one or more of the plurality of sensing agents based on the testing;
performing, by the processor, a first system assessment to determine whether a level of autonomous control should be modified based on the first calibration assessment; and
reducing, by the processor, the level of autonomous control of the cargo handling system in an event one or more of the plurality of sensing agents has at least one of faulted or failed.
