An illuminating sidewall system for an internal cabin of a vehicle includes a sidewall panel including a lateral segment connected to a ceiling segment, and at least one window. At least one lighting assembly includes a first portion secured to the lateral segment and a second portion secured to the ceiling segment. The lighting assembl(ies) is configured to emit light onto interior surfaces of one or both of the lateral segment and/or the ceiling segment.

A continuous power distribution circuit board containing: i) A printed circuit board; ii) A universal power node; iii) At least one channel on the printed circuit board for passage of current, signal and combinations thereof throughout the board; iv) At least one bridge rectifier in communication with the universal power node for rectifying non-discrete input current to discrete output current; v) At least one capacitor in communication with the at least one bridge rectifier minimizing voltage potential fluctuation from the bridge rectifier; vi) At least one current load in communication with the at least one capacitor; wherein the continuous power distribution circuit board maintains a constant current to the at least one current load without any external current controller.

A combined luminaire and air conditioning nozzle includes a front panel (101) with an opening. A nozzle frame (103) is pivotably connected to the opening of the front panel (101) so as to separate an air cavity (105) located behind the front panel (101) from a front side of the front panel (101). The structure includes a controller element (106) with a closing mechanism mechanically coupled thereto and arranged to adjustably limit an air passage (107) from the air cavity (105) to the front side of the front panel (101) in response to a movement of the controller element (106). A luminaire element (108) forms part of the closing mechanism and is provided with a light source arranged to output light to the front side of the front panel (101). The closing mechanism is arranged to convert a movement of the controller element (106) into a movement of the luminaire element (108), so that said adjustable limiting of the air passage (107) occurs as a result of said movement of the luminaire element (108).

A reactive illuminated wireless charging surface incorporated into a seating module or worksurface aboard an aircraft or other mobile platform has a translucent exterior surface beneath which a wireless charging device may be positioned and over which a PED may be placed for charging. The illuminated wireless charging surface may incorporate arrays or strips of individually addressable light emitting diodes (LED) or other like luminous devices set into flexible printed control boards (PCB) beneath the exterior surface. The illuminated wireless charging surface may have a display controller for driving the LED arrays in practical or aesthetically appealing ways to provide dynamic visual indication of a charging status, e.g., by adjusting individual LEDs or groups thereof to shift in color or intensity according to predetermined or preprogrammed patterns.

An air duct system for an aircraft provides passengers with light, data, electrical power, and sanitized air. The air duct system includes an air duct having a main body and a visible light source configured to generate visible light, where the visible light is modulated by one or more controllers based on a visible light communication protocol. The air duct system simultaneously achieves four functions for improving passengers' flying experience. First, a portion of the visible light transmitted by the air duct illuminates the interior cabin of the aircraft. Second, by modulating the visible light, the air duct system transmits and distributes data that is received by the passengers' electronic devices. Third, a portion of the visible light is converted into electrical power at each passenger seat to power passengers' electronic devices. Fourth, in embodiments, the visible light is emitted at a germicidal wavelength spectrum to create sanitized air.

Wayfinding apparatus for aircraft are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a wayfinding apparatus having a core composed of a light transmissive material. The core has a first surface defining a first face and a second surface defining a second face. The second face is oriented non-parallel relative to the first surface such that a second edge of the core is in a rearward direction relative to the first face. A transition is positioned between the first surface and the second surface. The transition is to optically couple the second edge and the first face.
