A boarding guidance system includes a beacon (202A) associated with a passenger seat (400A). The beacon is configured to communicate (506) with a passenger guiding device (102) and determine a distance between the passenger guiding device and the passenger seat. When the passenger guiding device is a predetermined distance from the passenger seat, the beacon provides an indication. The beacon further alter at least one characteristic of the indication based on the distance between the passenger guiding device and the passenger seat.

A system includes a set of passenger seat devices in a transport unit and a control unit. In order to permit an identification of seat locations to be changeable, a communication unit exchanges data between the set of passenger seat devices and the control unit. The control unit is provided in order to detect a current seat location arrangement as a function of data of the set of passenger seat devices. A method for seat location identification in a transport unit with a set of passenger seat devices is also provided.

Provided are an occupation alert system and method, a computer device and a readable storage medium. The occupation alert system includes: a first sensing component, disposed in a walking area of a place and configured for detecting trajectory information of a detected object; a second sensing component, disposed in a seat area of the place and configured for detecting pressure information corresponding to each seat disposed in the seat area; and a control module, electrically connected to the first sensing component and the second sensing component separately and configured to determine whether the each seat is occupied according to the trajectory information and the pressure information.

An aircraft projection device includes a projector that displays an image by projecting the image onto a floor surface of a passage in an interior of an aircraft; and a controller that controls the projector to display the image onto the floor surface of the passage in the interior of the aircraft.
