installed to monitor a passengers wellness status. With a bit of tweaking, such advancements could possibly identify passengers experiencing a medical issue, or on the verge of one. But no matter what sensoring technology is used (passenger-owned or provided by the airline), the IFE will need to be able to interact with it securely and be able to manage a data transfer. Perhaps new interface standards will need to be defined on how to structure such data, how to protect the privacy of someone, and how and where this data is transferred to a doctor on the ground. With lives on the line, this sequence of events needs to happen quickly. There are a few efforts underway, which are noted in the following section, and there are ancillary efforts on personal medical monitoring equipment. How to make all of this work together, and with an an aircraft and doctors on the ground will be question.
AEROHEALTH According to their website, Toulouse- based
AeroHealth.ai is a platform which provides remote medical guidance on-board an aircraft during flight. Their platform (it is unclear if this already exists, or, is still in development) is integrated into an aircraft’s IFE system and can be used in the case of an onboard medical emergency. This allows the flight crew to interact with a remote physician to find out what treatment can be performed immediately and whether an emergency landing is necessary.
AeroHealth.ai can also be used
by passengers on long-haul flights to consult with a physician about illness symptoms or when to take medication. No details on costs and billing were provided. Reports earlier this year indicated that AeroHealth. ai stated that it is speaking with Panasonic and American Airlines
about potentially integrating their system with connected seats. This company also looks to provide
“smart” seat applications using built- in sensors and safety and comfort applications such as seat settings for work and sleep optimization; fatigue
reduction and possibly dangerous conditions detection (ECG, blood oxygen levels, respiration rate); blood pressure sensing regulation. To provide this, it is evident that an operator would have to install new upgraded seats with required sensors
