It Futuristic Aircraft Design 2050, Cool or Cringe?

 An idea that best describe the future have been made by Airport Parking & Hotels and Imperial College London. They create a design that predict air transportation in the form of 30 to 40 years into the future.

Futuristic aircraft that has a capacity of up to 1,000 seats, equipped with a virtual headset and the projected image on the wall. Not only that, the lounge area is also made to improve passenger comfort.

The team and also a PhD student in the field of design, Adam Omar, designing advanced aircraft with jet has the advantage of current and next-generation technology.

The airframe will be wider and shorter and does not have a tail wing. Air transportation, will be operated by six biofuel engine located at the rear of the wing.

With a wider body and a larger wing, will hold a capacity of up to 1,000 passengers. But it does not reduce the comfort, because the plane will have more room for legs.

But perhaps not everyone liked the concept, because the plane has few windows. It is quoted by the Daily Mail.

As compensation, the transparent LCD screens on the walls display a state of the outside air, movies, programs or maps of in-flight entertainment systems, or pictures that can make passengers relax.

Monitor behind the seats will be replaced by a virtual headset contained on each seat with a circular design or visor.

Visors are right in front of the view of passengers and can play movies or games in 3D format. During takeoff, landing, or in an emergency, the object will fold automatically.

In the air, there will be a bar that allows passengers to get out of their chairs and socialize freely.

In addition to improving the passenger experience, the team aims to design aircraft that is far more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly.

The aircraft would be carried out with the use of low-emission biofuel and will be driven by a series of electric fan whose energy comes from small engines.

By using these technologies, the futuristic mode of transport only produces low emissions when compared to current aircraft.

Most of the raw materials of the seats, the floor and walls were made with the lightest metal named microlattice, developed by Boeing.

Head of marketing for Airport Parking & Hotels, Beverly Barden, said, "Modes of air transport has long been regarded as an uncomfortable way to vacation."

"With advances in the design of the passenger seat, in-flight entertainment, and extra space for bar and relaxation area, making it uncomfortable to be part of the past."

"Working closely with Imperial College London, we have been able to create innovative models that describe what air travel 30 years from now ...," he added.
