Classification: CPC G  B | IPC G

Claim 11:
12. A method comprising:
receiving biometric data, aircraft state data, and mission profile data, wherein the biometric data is of a pilot within a flight deck and is captured by one or more biometric sensors, wherein the biometric data indicates a state of the pilot, wherein the biometric data includes at least one of video-based biometric data, audio-based biometric data, or wearables-based biometric data; wherein the aircraft state data includes at least one of a geographic location, a flight parameter, or an aircraft systems status; wherein the mission profile data includes at least one of a filed flight plan and current route, a weather condition, or a phase of flight
performing data fusion on the biometric data, the aircraft state data, and the mission profile data to generate fused information with a common timestamp; wherein the data fusion includes timestamping the video-based biometric data, the audio-based biometric data, the wearables-based biometric data, the filed flight plan and the current route, the weather condition, the phase of flight, the geographic location, the flight parameter, and the aircraft systems status;
applying an alerting algorithm to the fused information to determine an alert, the alert including at least one of an alert priority, an alert intensity, an alert frequency, or an alert modality which is based on the fused information; and
providing the alert to the pilot by an aircraft avionics system.
