Abstract

The invention relates to a passenger seat pairing system. Provided is a system for pairing a personal electronic device of a passenger with a passenger seat in a vehicle, and for allowing the personal electronic device to control passenger in-seat functions and features such as entertainment systems in vehicles. The system comprises an on-board management system for installation in a vehicle. The on-board management system is configured to receive pairing information from the personal electronic device via a wireless communication link. The on-board management system can then pair the personal electronic device to the passenger seat and authorize the personal electronic device to control one or more passenger seat functions associated with the passenger seat. A device pairing software application is stored on a non-transitory carrier and is configured to program the personal electronic device to transmit the pairing information to the on-board management system, and transmit a command or control instruction to control one or more passenger seat functions.

Description

technical field [0001] The field of the invention relates generally to on-seat functions and features of vehicles, and more specifically, to methods for pairing a passenger's personal electronic device with the passenger seat so that the personal electronic device can be used to control the vehicle's in-seat functions and features. A system of functions and features on the passenger seat such as entertainment systems (eg, video / audio programming), comfort systems (eg, seat adjustment), and environmental systems (eg, air conditioning). Background technique [0002] Many vehicles of common carriers such as airplanes, passenger trains, buses, cruise ships, etc. have individual functional equipment dedicated to specific passenger seats that can be used by passengers, such as adjustable seats, adjustable environmental controls, adjustable Lighting, telephone systems, video and / or audio entertainment systems, flight attendant communication systems, etc. For example, many commerci...
