Abstract:
A system and method for identifying seats within a mobile platform (15) such as an aircraft, bus, ship, train, etc. A sensor subsystem (14) detects when a door (18) of the mobile platform (15) is opened and transmits a wireless signal to each one of a plurality of projector subsystems. Each of the projector subsystems are disposed adjacent an associated seat (16) of the mobile platform (16). Each projector subsystem projects an enlarged, optical signal with seat identifying information onto the seatback (16B) of its associated seat.
