Collins Aerospace will puts its Venue smart monitor integrated with Airshow HD into service in November. The smart monitor with Airshow HD is an all-in-one entertainment solution for business aviation, providing 4K resolutions, flight information and streaming entertainment to the cabin. Dassault Falcon Jet's service centre in Little Rock, Arkansas will install two smart monitors with Airshow HD into the cabin bulkhead of a Falcon 7X.

The Venue smart monitor streamlines Airshow HD cabin entertainment into one consolidated unit, providing customers with an elegant IFE entry point. With the ability to be installed on very light jets to heavy aircraft, the system is designed to eliminate excess hardware, reducing aircraft power consumption and simplifying on-going maintenance.

“The activation of the first Venue smart monitor with Airshow HD marks a significant shift in business aviation in-flight entertainment, bringing pristine resolutions, streaming content and an enhanced user interface to more jets than ever before,” says Craig Bries, vice president and general manager of commercial avionics at Collins Aerospace. “The standalone system is flexible and simple to install, enabling phased upgrade paths to meet a variety of entertainment needs, cabin layouts and budgets.”

The solution includes the Airshow HD mobile application, available for download on user mobile devices. Designed with familiar iconography and intuitive functionality, the application extends Airshow HD access to passenger fingertips anywhere within the cabin.

The Venue smart monitor with Airshow HD is available in five sizes with touchscreen and ultra high-definition options available.
