1. A system adapted for monitoring a passenger compartment of a vehicle, comprising:

  • an image sensor adapted to detect infra-red light;

    a processor adapted to receive outputs of the image sensor via a wired or wireless connection with the image sensor;

    a wide angle lens mounted in front of the image sensor and having a wide field of view; and

    a mount adapted to connect the image sensor and the wide angle lens to the passenger compartment such that the wide field of view covers at least part of each of a plurality of seats in the passenger compartment so as to allow the processor to detect at least one human parameter in each of the plurality of seats based on an analysis of the outputs of the image sensor.
