Abstract
A camera with a field of view toward an external environment of an aircraft is disposed within an aircraft door such that a leading edge of a wing of the aircraft is within the field of view of the camera. A display device is disposed within an interior of the aircraft. A processor is operatively coupled to the camera and to the display device. The processor analyzes image data captured by the camera to predict a likelihood of foreign object collision with the leading edge of the wing, or detect damage or deformation to the leading edge.
