Innovation-related activities

    One of the major innovations of the SEAT project is the development of a novel integrated cabin environment that incorporates: physiological monitoring with health alert option that is not in existence in aircrafts but partners in this consortia have developed such technologies for different applications; "smart seat" that actively addresses potential health hazards and is an integral part of the on-board entertainment; "smart textiles" and other smart technologies in vibration dampening and noise reduction; innovative active/passive noise control, based on advanced computational models; interactive context based entertainment; and integrated approach to comfort, entertainment and creation of flexible home/office environment.

These innovative building blocks are based on:

• Innovative wearable technologies for physiological modeling
• Use of intelligent textiles with builtin sensors and active dampening facilities
• Development of structural analysis tools that allow simulating and assessing the effect of different "smart solutions"
• Development of fully compatible modules that can data in isolation or communicate with each other
• Utilisation of technologies developed by the partners in the area of avionics, on-board entertainment, noise control, smart textiles, wearable monitoring
