Abstract

Within the sixth European Commission framework programme, the main objective of the SEAT project initiated in September, 2006, consists of the development of a radically new concept, where the aircraft passenger comfort is considered at the highest level. Smart reactive seats and an interior environment able to detect on real time physiological and psychological changes in the passenger conditions will be developed. These data will be analysed and the appropriate parameters, like noise and vibration levels, temperature or air ventilation, will be adapted. Moreover, each passenger will be able to create his own configuration, with his personal entertainment and work characteristics. The project is focussed on the questions previous to the integration of the system, that is above all the creation of a more healthy and comfortable travel environment by means of noise and vibration reduction, as well as specific climatic controls. In this paper, the first passive and active designs under development are presented.
