Collins Aerospace, a prominent business under RTX, has introduced its latest innovation, the Venue smart monitor, designed to enhance the cabin experience in business jets. This cutting-edge smart monitor offers operators versatile growth paths and integration options for cabin management and in-flight entertainment (IFE) solutions. The Venue smart monitor can serve as a standalone IFE solution or seamlessly integrate within the Venue cabin management system (CMS). Equipped with embedded smart technology and a robust processing platform, this monitor simplifies future software updates and facilitates the seamless integration of Collins Aerospace’s suite of IFE products, including Airshow moving maps and Stage on-demand entertainment.

One of the key features of the smart monitor is its installation flexibility, providing customers with the option to upgrade their CMS and IFE solutions in a cost-effective, phased approach. This flexibility allows operators to tailor their cabin functionality, individual comfort, and entertainment options according to their specific needs.

“The Venue smart monitor provides operators and their passengers with a single access point to completely control cabin functionality, individual comfort and entertainment options,” said Marc Ayala, senior director of sales, Business & Regional Aviation for Collins Aerospace. “The smart monitor enables simple software updates, third party add-ons and the flexibility for owners to incrementally grow their IFE and CMS capabilities at a pace that fits their individual needs,” he further added.

The Venue smart monitor offers five different monitor sizes and 4K ultra-high-definition options, ensuring pristine resolution and viewing enjoyment for various cabin configurations and aircraft sizes. Its intuitive graphical user interface provides a consistent user experience across touchscreen monitors, mobile applications, and cabin touch panels.

Furthermore, the all-inclusive smart monitor reduces redundancies by replacing legacy Airshow moving maps bulkhead displays and consolidating hardware onboard the aircraft. This integration optimizes power usage and reduces overall carry weight, leading to decreased fuel burn and associated carbon emissions.
