  • Patent number: 11109001
    Abstract: A system for representing a vehicle cabin layout on an original scale comprising a plurality of projectors, a planar projection surface and a control system. The layout is loaded as digital cabin layout data into the control system and the layout comprises a first cabin aisle section extending along a first aisle axis. The projectors comprise vertical projectors spaced along a first projector axis. The control system drives the vertical projectors and processes cabin layout data loaded into the control system to project at least one section of the cabin layout on the planar projection surface on the original scale. That section of the layout which is projected by the vertical projectors comprises the first aisle section, such that the first aisle axis runs with the first projector axis in a first aisle plane extending perpendicular to the planar projection surface.
