ThinkstockPhotos-515225813-260x390The latest smart technology coming out of the labs at Apple Inc. is a smartwatch, Apple’s latest and reportedly most-personal computer. The Apple Watch incorporates fitness tracking and other health capabilities and is designed to free people from their smartphones by putting upgraded technology on their wrists. Not a standalone device, the watch works by connecting via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to the phone and then gives the wearer a new way to engage with apps beyond the phone.

It also gives app developers a whole new playing field.

App cabin control

Last year, Honeywell Aerospace demonstrated smartphone apps for controlling an aircraft cabin. Those apps were dropped from production, however, when the Apple Watch was introduced and Honeywell turned its sights on creating app-controlled cabin systems for aircraft equipped with its Ovation™ Select Cabin Management System (CMS). Lighting, display monitoring, temperature, electronic shades, and more can now be managed using the wearable device.

Watch and learn

Instead of hitting an attendant call button, passengers can notify flight attendants from their watches, giving them the opportunity to remain engaged in conversations, for example, instead of picking up and looking at their phones. Passengers can also be notified of when they should buckle their seat belts by the watch app — all without creating noise in the cabin or disturbing what’s in progress.

Ovation Select

Some of the key features of the Ovation Select CMS include:

  • High-definition (HD) entertainment, including HD widescreens and high-performance audio systems with video on demand
  • Integrated docking systems for distribution of media throughout the cabin from an iPad or iPhone
  • Environment monitoring for cabin temperature, lighting, all galley operations, and more
  • Multi-user capabilities, with the ability to control all integrated elements in different zones throughout the aircraft

Already designed for true flying convenience, the Ovation Select System is now fully optimized with the app. Now everyone on board can relax and enjoy the latest entertainment or collaborate on projects with complete independence.
