3D-printed aircraft More than a thousand parts of the A350 have been 3D-printed. Aviation experts predict that this technology will continue to grow over time. “We started with spare parts on aircraft that require replacement from time to time, like handles,” says Ido Elon, General Manager of Stratasys South Asia and Pacific. Three-dimensional printing of parts used in the manufacture of aircraft, which will reduce the laboriousness of making some spare parts, and save cost and time. Often, parts made with three-dimensional printing are between 30 and 55 percent lighter, and they use 90 percent less raw materials than parts made in the traditional way.

In-flight entertainment, multitasking: a screen on the back of a chair or a smart board in your hands? The two devices represent the future of in-flight entertainment services, as the new Thales entertainment system, AVANT, allows passengers to watch TV and work on a smart board at the same time, by providing a device that integrates the two together. The traveler can control the device through a remote control device called "Avi," similar to a smartphone. The smart board acts as a second screen, allowing users to browse other movies while watching a movie on the main screen, and to link a personal smartphone to the device to display personal items as well.

Eye Control The in-flight entertainment system is aimed at passengers traveling in Business Class or First Class whose television screens are far from their seats. Therefore, a new technology will be available that allows the traveler to turn off or turn on his screen using his eye movements, as the screen will automatically turn off when the viewer turns his face away and turn on automatically when looking at it. It is expected that this technology will see the light during the next 5 or 7 years.

A travel application that adapts to all destinationsDevelopers are working on making an application that can adapt to the change of the location or destination of the traveler. This application aspires to collect information about all flights and airports in one place, which will facilitate the process of checking the travel information for the traveler. The application will also be able to alert the traveler if his luggage is lost.

Training pilots with virtual reality glasses The Singapore Technology Engineering Company presented new glasses that show virtual reality for training pilots. The glasses work when trainees put them on, showing them a virtual cockpit. The glasses also provide instructions about the operation of the aircraft, as the trainee can interact with it through the use of a controller connected to it or through motion sensors. The technology is supposed to ease current limitations on space and mobility during training, as pilots can train anywhere they have eyeglasses and a laptop, eliminating the need for a full simulator room.
