Abstract: A central computing platform provides users with control over multi-party information involving third-party services during different stages of a travel journey, or while users are provided with data connectivity via different networks or systems. The central computing platform provides a digital ledger on which the multi-party information is recorded. Recording of the multi-party information, as well as modification thereof, requires authentication of each party as well as input (e.g., approval) by the computing platform. The central computing platform can be communicatively coupled with local networks, such as cellular networks, as well as mobile platforms or in-vehicle connectivity systems to which user devices can be connected. As a result, the central computing platform is involved in generation, recording, modification, and fulfillment of multi-party arrangements between users and third-party services.

Abstract: Machine learning (ML)/artificial intelligence (AI) assistance is provided for the operation of an inflight entertainment network. A system may include a client agent deployed in communication with a passenger's personal device, a service agent deployed at least in part outside the vehicle and a cloud agent implemented remotely from the vehicle. The client agent is configured to collect passenger-facing AI-based insights with its own AI/ML model, the insights related to passenger preferences for in-vehicle services. The service agent is configured to collect services-facing AI-based insights representing interactions between passengers and available services and similarities among available services. The cloud agent implements a matching engine that bilaterally uses the passenger-facing insights and the services-facing insights to connect a passenger with an onboard service. The communication between the client agent, service agent, and the cloud agent can span multiple mobility stages of a travel journey.

Abstract: Technical solutions are described that provide in-flight virtual experiences for passengers onboard a commercial passenger vehicle. In some examples, the in-flight virtual experiences simulate real-life experiences that relate to the respective travels or journeys of the passengers. For example, the in-flight virtual experiences can simulate, in various extended reality (XR) forms (e.g., virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR)), tourism attractions at journey destinations, vendor goods and services, and the like. The in-flight virtual experiences are provided via virtual experience applications implemented by an in-vehicle system, and multiple passengers can interact and collaborate in a combined session for a virtual experience application.

In some examples, the central computing platform provides users with control over digital records of real-world interactions with other users. The platform generates and publishes digital records of real-world interactions between users that include media data capturing the real-world interactions.

Abstract: Technical solutions are described that enable passengers on a commercial passenger vehicle interact with each other during a trip using their electronic devices by communicating using an on-board communication platform. The platform can provide an in-flight shared virtual environment or world that is accessible and traversable by passengers and that includes real-world and/or virtual for passengers to consume. Passengers can create or use virtual avatars to preserve anonymity and privacy while interacting and communicating with others within the in-flight shared virtual environment or world. Data records/logs capturing cross-passenger interactions or communications within the in-flight shared virtual environment can be purged after the vehicle's flight.
