The Future of In-Flight Entertainment: Flexible OLED Digital Magazines
Flexible OLED panels have the look and feel of hard glossy magazine paper and Digital Magazines work independently, under the discretion of the airlines of course, but do not need the passenger’s device for their functioning. All that the Digital Magazines require for their operation is a connection with the inflight safety card.
The idea of Digital Magazines has been patented by Airbus though there is still no word yet as to when is the earliest to expect such magazines during flight. The company has been working on such a plan for some time though, with the aerospace major having signed a deal with Royole Technologies to further work on this.
The Digital Magazine concept earned Airbus the Crystal Cabin Award nomination this year. Not only will this save airlines all the hazard of dealing with paper magazines, but the Digital Magazines has an almost unlimited shelf life provided the hardware remains relevant. The content can be refreshed whenever needed while passengers can also be provided personalization options as well.
