Airplane seat, passenger bench, magnetic field resonance system, and use of a device for generating electromagnetic interaction in an airplane seat or in a passenger bench in an aircraft
View Patent ↗A seat with a device for generating electromagnetic interaction in an accommodation region that is equipped to accommodate an object. By electromagnetic interaction, an object can be influenced in such a way that, for example, fatigue that occurs during long-distance flights can be avoided. The device is used to prevent and reduce the occurrence of jet lag, reduce the danger of passengers suffering from thrombosis, and increase general well-being by promoting relaxation, sleep and stress reduction. The integration in cabin crew seats and/or cockpit seats can improve the performance of the crew of an aircraft on long-distance flights.
