FDS Avionics Introduces 'Glass Cabin'

Breakthrough Technology In A Deeply Immersive 3D Map Experience

FDS Avionics has introduced the next breakthrough in interactive moving maps – Glass Cabin. Using a smartphone or tablet, passengers can explore the surrounding terrain by pointing their device in any direction. Panning the device left, right, up, or down changes their view. Glass Cabin is the newest feature of the do CAPSULE.

"Glass Cabin is an incredible way to view the moving map," says Dave Dodson, Marketing Director. "Passengers can point forward to emulate the cockpit view or point down to see what's directly below. Glass Cabin allows an unobstructed view of the aircraft surroundings in breathtaking detail, adding an entirely new level of interaction, and fun, to an already robust entertainment platform."

Glass Cabin works in conjunction with do 3D Moving Map, the richly detailed three-dimensional map available as an upgrade to the do CAPSULE. The do CAPSULE is at the core of the do EXPERIENCE, an extensive platform for In-flight Entertainment, including DRM-compliant movies, music, photos, business productivity, 2D and 3D moving maps, among other features. Connected to a Wi-Fi router, the do CAPSULE streams entertainment to VIP passengers in-flight.

To enjoy Glass Cabin, passengers must be using the free do EXPERIENCE app for Apple or Android. Passengers can stream entertainment to tablets, laptops and smartphones. As many as eight passengers can individually access streaming content.
