A cargo restraint system and associated methods may include sensing assemblies (50) associated with cargo latches (45) in a cargo hold (35) of an aircraft (40). In some embodiments, the sensing assemblies (50) include sensors (52) configured to sense information relating to the cargo latches (45), wireless communication circuits (55) configured to transmit the sensed information to a central controller (60), and batteries (70) powering the wireless communication circuits (55). A wireless power transmission system may be configured to wirelessly broadcast power to the sensor assemblies to charge the batteries (70). In some embodiments, the cargo latches (45) are transitionable between an extended configuration for cargo restraint and a retracted configuration for cargo loading and unloading, and the sensors (52) are configured to sense whether the cargo latches (45) are in the extended configuration.
