Air travels, especially for long haul, may cause both physiological and psychological discomfort to passenger. Passenger comfort is clearly a main factor in user’s acceptance of transportation systems.

The paper describes the framework and architecture of the adaptive aircraft seat as well as the application of sensor to detect the sitting posture during air travel.
