TCI Aircraft Interiors has signed a memorandum of understanding with Dolby Laboratories to assess the use of immersive audio and video technologies in future in-flight entertainment (IFE) systems.
The non-binding agreement focuses on evaluating the integration of Dolby Atmos spatial audio and Dolby Vision high dynamic range (HDR) video into TCI’s Cornea IFE platform. The companies will study technical and commercial aspects of deploying these technologies in aircraft cabin environments.
The MoU does not include commitments to product development or commercial rollout but is intended to explore potential applications for next-generation IFE systems.
