Voice-recognition safety system for aircraft and method of using the same

摘要

A voice-recognition system and method for detecting an emergency situation in an aircraft. The system includes sensor(s) to pick up spoken word(s)/phrase(s) of an aircraft pilot and transmit signal(s) in response to the spoken word(s)/phrase(s) of the pilot; and a base unit including electronics to process the signal(s) and adapted to determine if the signal(s) represent code word(s)/phrase(s) representative of an emergency situation in the aircraft; and an alarm to indicate that an emergency situation has been detected in the aircraft. The method includes sensing the spoken word(s)/phrase(s) of the pilot and transmitting the signal(s) in response to the word(s)/phrase(s) to the electronics; processing the signal(s) with the electronics to determine whether the signal(s) represent code word(s)/phrase(s) representative of an emergency situation; and initiating an alarm indicating that an emergency situation took place if the signal(s) represent code word(s)/phrase(s) representative of an emergency situation.
