    摘要: A method and system may include commanding, by a processor, a lighting system to generate a desired melanopic effect in accordance with a spectral weighting mode. To determine, by the processor, the spectral weighting mode based on an algorithm that compares a part of a spectrum for an amount of melanopic lumen to a melanopic sensitivity curve to generate a result comprising a melanopic ratio. In response to the result comprising the melanopic ratio, to by determine by the processor a visual brightness by calculations using an algorithmic solution based on the melanopic ratio multiplied by an amount of color temperature generating the visual brightness in accordance with the spectral weighting mode of the desired melanopic effect.

    摘要: A system and method for remote control of a passenger control unit (PCU) via a mobile communications device includes a wireless controller and receiver installed between the PCU and a PCU control module connected to actuators for seats and other peripheral devices. The wireless controller includes a set of contacts mapped to a matrix of switches within the PCU. The wireless receiver receives a contact signal from a user device configured for execution of a graphical interface of virtual contacts mapped to the set of contacts. When the user engages a virtual contact, the contact signal indicates the engaged virtual contact and the wireless controller engages the corresponding contact. The PCU control module detects the engaged contact as an engagement of the corresponding PCU switch and signals the appropriate seat or peripheral device actuator. Seats and peripheral devices may be simultaneously controlled via the physical PCU or via mobile device.

    摘要: A canopy is configured to be mounted to a passenger seat of a passenger transport vehicle, in particular an aircraft. The canopy is foldable between a retracted storage configuration and an extended operational configuration. In the operational configuration, the canopy forms a hood establishing a passenger's personal space below the canopy. The canopy comprises at least one functional device which is configured for modifying a physical characteristics of the personal space. The at least one functional device in particular includes at least one of a lighting device configured for lighting the personal space and a venting device configured for venting the personal space.

    摘要: A fixture configured to secure a component in a vehicle includes a panel separating an internal cabin from an external compartment. The panel has a first side facing the internal cabin and a second side facing the external compartment. A hole is disposed within the panel. The component is configured for mounting to the panel via the hole. The component includes a flange configured for abutting the first side of the panel and a coupling feature configured to extend through the hole into the external compartment. A fastener is configured to removably couple with the coupling feature and abut the second side of the panel for fastening the component to the panel.
