Boeing’s Commercial Airplanes’ Product Development team is examining ways to take the connectivity of today’s daily life into the skies. Ideas are tested in the vCabin, a mock-up of a networked airplane interior. Recent smart cabin tests include using tablets, smartphones and smartwatches to order food and drinks, check bathroom availability and manage lighting options.
