airplane mode, is a frequently used feature on phones, even when not boarding the plane. However, you have to turn on airplane mode manually and when you turn it on, you have to waive some features. Google On the other hand, it plans to revise the airplane mode by addressing these situations. Even the name of this new feature has been revealed. new feature, “As Connected Flight Mode” will be named.
Google’s new airplane mode!
Google, World Intellectual Property Organization (via WIPO) “Enable Connected Flight Mode” filed a patent application. What Google is doing here is taking Airplane Mode to another level. You probably know how to enable Airplane Mode on your phone. However, Google plans to handle this automatically with its new technology.
You may wonder how it will be automatic. According to the patent, Connected Flight Mode will use sensors on the device to determine if you’re flying by monitoring changes in acceleration and speed, pressure drop, and listening for certain sounds. In this way, the device that understands that you are flying will turn on Flight Mode (renamed Connected Flight Mode) without your hassle.
Among the triggers that will activate Connected Flight Mode, according to the patent application pressure drop, acceleration and velocity changes environmental factors such as; flight engine noise and altitude noise cabin sounds, ultrasonic aircraft beacon signals, various radio signals (GPS, Cellular ID, Wi-Fi signal), travel booking activity and check-in status such as contextual factors.
Historic breakthrough: Giant plane is painted with just a handful of paint!
It is possible to coat Boeing 747 aircraft using 1.4 kilograms with the plasmonic paint developed by the team led by Debashis Chanda.
When the device detects that you are flying, Connected Flight Mode will be automatically activated. The goal here is to disable the signals on your mobile device while keeping you connected to the Bluetooth and the aircraft’s Wi-Fi signals. Currently, if you enable Airplane Mode on your phone, all the connections are closed. But after enabling Airplane Mode, you can turn off Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. open separately. you can access. This applies to both Android and iOS.
This feature allows the device connected to Wi-Fi to be the same as the Wi-Fi you use on the ground. “high bandwidth capabilities and unmetered usage” It also allows it to work as if it is connected. Thus, in-flight Wi-Fi is treated the same as any other Wi-Fi network. It is not known when this new airplane mode, which Google introduced as Connected Flight Mode, will come to Android devices.
