STG Aerospace, the pioneering aircraft cabin lighting specialist, is delighted to announce that its Airbus liTeMood® solution is now FAA certifiied for the Airbus A318, A319, A320 and A321. This complements the EASA certification that it was awarded in August of this year.
Airbus liTeMood® is a dynamic and configurable full colour, plug-and-play, programmable retrofit lighting system that provides a choice of over 16 million colours and can be used to create bespoke scenes – from northern lights to sunrises and sunsets to settings specifically designed to celebrate national holidays – in just minutes using a patented infrared wand.
Designed to work with both classic and enhanced CIDS, the system can be installed in under 6 hours with no changes required to the aircraft’s wiring or control panels. Airbus liTeMood® also delivers a range of operational benefits, including an MTBF in excess of 55,000 operating hours, a weight saving of up to 20kg on an A320, and a reduction in power usage of 55% compared to incumbent systems.
Dr Sean O’Kell, Director of Innovation for STG Aerospace, commented: “Airbus liTeMood® is an easily retrofitted lighting system that can truly transform the experience of all passengers onboard an A320-family aircraft. Winning both EASA and now FAA certification is a testament to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in the STG Aerospace team.”
