Embodiment Construction

[0059] Passenger vehicle interface systems will now be described against the background of in-flight entertainment (IFE) systems on commercial airliners. As described below, the described system advantageously greatly facilitates system upgrades and maintenance procedures, such as for installing any upgrades to the operating system, or installing any upgrades to any drivers, or replacing faulty units.

[0060] refer to figure 1 , figure 1 A block diagram of a passenger interface system is shown, comprising a display screen 1 , a mobile processing unit 2 and a docking station 3 . The mobile processing unit 2 is arranged to be detachably connected to the docking station 3 .

[0061] The mobile processing unit 2 includes a RAM 2a and a persistent storage 2b. The processing unit 2 further includes a central processing unit (CPU) 2d and a graphics processing unit (GPU).

[0062] The persistent storage 2b is loaded with an operating system, interface applications, and various dr...

Abstract

The invention relates to a passenger vehicle interface system. A passenger interface apparatus for a passenger transportation vehicle comprising: a visual display generator, a docking station, a removable processor unit, arranged to be detachably connected to the docking station, a connection device provided between the docking station and the visual display generator, arranged to supply data and / or signalling to the visual display generator, the removable processor unit comprising a memory, a data processor, and a connection interface arranged to connect to a connection interface of the docking station such that when in a connected condition the connection interfaces arranged to convey data and / or signalling therebetween. A passenger interface arrangement enables direct combination with future development without changing of a seat structure, so that a need for authentication of the system and the seat assembly again before use is eliminated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to passenger vehicle interfaces, which generally include passenger audiovisual systems, and in particular, but not exclusively, aircraft in-flight entertainment systems. Background technique [0002] Commercial aircraft, such as those typically used for flights lasting more than four hours, tend to provide passengers with entertainment systems that play audio and video content. This is called in-flight entertainment (IFE); a typical system includes an onboard host subsystem that can provide audio and video content, and a seat-based display system. These systems are typically connected together via hard wires or increasingly via wireless transmission. [0003] Monitors tend to be smart devices because they provide direct passenger interaction through on-screen menus activated by seat-based passenger control units (PCUs), or directly into the screen through touch-enabled membranes or similar screen-based technology.
