Skycast Solutions unveils its brand new Trayvu device, an android system to be integrated into existing and future seating systems. Last week we caught news of future Boeing 787s coming equipped with Android Entertainment Systems, but it looks like older planes will also get some in-flight Android entertainment thanks to Skycast Solutions’ brand new Trayvu. Trayvu is designed to be easily integrated into the trays of airplanes located on the back side of seats.

With an 8.9-inch touch screen running on the current Honeycomb version of Android, Trayvu features several different applications that can be tailored to any flights needs, such as entertainment sections for television, music, movies, and gaming. A built-in card reader will also give flights the opportunity to have shopping sections for sky-shopping, food and beverage orders.

The Trayvu device will be viewable both when the tray is stowed in its upright position and when the table is lowered. Weighing in at less than 2 pounds each, Trayvu can be easily integrated into both existing and future seating units and can be replaced easily over time. Although the integration of tablet technology into airplanes can provide an incredible new platform for in-flight entertainment, we can’t help but cringe at the thought of children playing whack-a-mole games and poking furiously at our backsides.
