SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUGMENTED REALITY MOBILE DEVICE TO SELECT AIRCRAFT CABIN DISPLAY AND VIDEO CONTENT FOR AIRCRAFT CABIN - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240017828 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUGMENTED REALITY MOBILE DEVICE TO SELECT AIRCRAFT CABIN DISPLAY AND VIDEO CONTENT FOR AIRCRAFT CABIN

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system that includes an aircraft interface device, displays installed in an aircraft cabin, an LRU (Line Replaceable Unit), and a mobile device within the aircraft cabin. The mobile device is configured to capture images of the aircraft cabin and identify displays within the captured images. It then displays an augmented reality view of the captured images, including indicators for the identified displays, which have user-selectable video content options. The mobile device can receive user selections of a display and the associated video content option, and transmit instructions to display the selected video content on the chosen display.

  • The system includes an aircraft interface device, displays, an LRU, and a mobile device.
  • The mobile device captures images of the aircraft cabin and identifies displays within the images.
  • It displays an augmented reality view of the captured images, including indicators for the identified displays.
  • The indicators provide user-selectable video content options for the identified displays.
  • The mobile device can receive user selections of a display and the associated video content option.
  • It can transmit instructions to display the selected video content on the chosen display.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • In-flight entertainment systems: Passengers can use their mobile devices to select and control video content on specific displays within the aircraft cabin.
  • Advertising and promotional displays: The system can be used to display targeted advertisements or promotional content on specific displays, enhancing the passenger experience.
  • Training and educational purposes: The system can be utilized for training purposes, allowing instructors to display instructional videos or content on specific displays within the aircraft cabin.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improved user experience: Passengers can easily select and control video content on specific displays, enhancing their in-flight entertainment experience.
  • Efficient content management: The system allows for targeted content delivery to specific displays, optimizing the use of available screens.
  • Enhanced advertising capabilities: Advertisers can display targeted advertisements on specific displays, increasing the effectiveness of their campaigns.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Personalized entertainment: Passengers can choose their preferred video content on specific displays, providing a personalized in-flight entertainment experience.
  • Targeted advertising: Advertisers can reach their desired audience by displaying advertisements on specific displays, increasing the effectiveness of their marketing efforts.
  • Improved training and education: Instructors can utilize specific displays to deliver training or educational content, enhancing the learning experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system includes an aircraft interface device, displays installed in an aircraft cabin, an lru, and a mobile device within the aircraft cabin. the mobile device is configured to: capture images of the aircraft cabin; identify at least one display of the at least two displays within the captured images; display an augmented reality view of the captured images including indicator(s) for the at least one display having user-selectable video content options; receive a user selection of a given display of the at least one display, indicative of a selection to control video content for the given display; display a graphical representation of the user-selectable video content options; receive a user option selection of the user-selectable video content options, the user option selection associated with a particular video content option associated with particular video content; and transmit an instruction to display the particular video content on the given display.
