The technology described in this document can be embodied in a vehicle seat that includes a seat headrest portion for supporting the head of an occupant, and a seat backrest portion for supporting the back of the occupant in a seated position. The backrest portion includes an enclosure for receiving at least a portion of an acoustic transducer. The vehicle seat also includes an acoustic channel having a first end that is configured to be fitted around a driver of the acoustic transducer in an acoustically sealed configuration, and a second end. The second end is opposite the first end and disposed at a location closer to the seat headrest portion than the seat backrest portion. The acoustic channel is configured to radiate acoustic energy from the acoustic transducer through the second end.

An apparatus for an aircraft cabin may include a body and a personal electronic device (PED) holder. The body may include a sloped surface between a top surface and a recess surface with a plurality of recess protrusions configured to support a PED. The body may be couplable to a surface within the aircraft cabin via one or more couplers. The PED holder may include a paddle and at least one hinge coupler. The paddle may be located opposite the sloped surface within the recess. The paddle may be dimensioned to fit within the recess when the PED holder is in a closed position. The paddle may be configured to support the PED when the PED holder is in an open position. The PED holder may be configured to rotate about an axis through the at least one hinge coupler between at least the open position and the closed position.

A vehicle seat comprises a carrier including first, second, third, and fourth carrier members and a strap disposed across opposing first and second carrier members. The strap includes a first end fixedly coupled to the first carrier member and a second end adjustably coupled to an attachment assembly disposed on the second carrier member. A rod is disposed transverse to the strap and is coupled to opposing third and fourth carrier members, wherein the attachment assembly includes an adjustment mechanism for setting a usable length of the strap, and wherein the usable length includes a first usable length, a second usable length, and an intermediate length between the first usable length and the second usable length.

A system is disclosed. The system includes a restraint apparatus for securing a mobile electronic device to a passenger seat. The restraint apparatus includes a backing plate to support a back surface of the mobile electronic device. The restraint apparatus further includes a support assembly that includes support tabs to support the bottom end of the mobile electronic device and a support bias mechanism to bias the tabs in at least one of an extended or retracted position. The restrain apparatus further includes a claw assembly that includes claws to support the top end of the mobile electronic device and a claw bias mechanism to bias the claws in at least one or a default or protracted position.
