Safran Passenger Innovations has announced that the company’s RAVE in-flight entertainment (IFE) system now supports extended reality, including Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR) devices, resulting in passengers being able to interact and navigate the RAVE IFE system and watch all on-board IFE content using their extended reality devices.
According to Safran Passenger Innovations, the innovative solution is developed on the RAVE Wireless platform and will be available for aircraft with RAVE Seat Centric IFE as well as aircraft with only RAVE Wireless IFE. This allows carriers to offer a differentiated passenger experience across the board on all fleet types.
Ben Asmar, Safran Passenger Innovations’ Vice President of Products and Strategy commented: “At Safran Passenger Innovations, we are always excited to be able to embrace new technologies and integrate them as a part of the overall entertainment and engagement experience, giving passengers the ultimate choice about how they interact with IFE on board, whether through the seat back screen or spatially through an XR headset.”
