System and method for seat search comparison and selection based on physical characteristics of travelers

摘要

Disclosed herein are system, media, and method for flight searching, comparison, and selection based on physical characteristics of travelers and usable seat space comprising a database of seats with seat spaces, and an application comprising: a software module allowing a traveler to enter physical information and search criteria; a software module calculating a volumetric physical space of the traveler; a software module generating a list of seats based on the physical information and said search criteria, the list comprising: an optimal seat and competing seats, wherein one of the competing seats has a greater seat space while the other has less seat space that of the optimal seat; a software module allowing visual comparison the volumetric physical space to various seat spaces; a software module generating a travel avatar of the traveler; and a software module allowing visualization of three-dimensional movement of the travel avatar in a virtual seat.

1. A computer-implemented system for flight seat searching, comparison, and selection based on physical characteristics of travelers and usable flight seat space, the system comprising:
a. a digital processing device comprising an operating system configured to perform executable instructions and a memory; b. a database of a plurality of seats, each of the plurality of seats comprising a seat space; and c. a computer program including instructions executable by the digital processing device to create a flight seat searching, comparison, and selection application comprising:
i. a software module allowing a traveler to enter physical information of the traveler and one or more search criteria;ii. a software module calculating a volumetric physical space that the traveler needs based on the physical information;iii. a software module generating a list of seats from the plurality of seats based on the physical information and said search criteria, the list comprising:
1) an optimal seat, the optimal seat comprising a first seat space, the optimal seat having a first cost per unit seat space in the list; and2) two or more competing seats, wherein one of the two or more competing seats has a second seat space that is greater than the first seat space, while the other has a third seat space that is smaller than the first seat space;iv. a software module allowing the traveler to visually compare the calculated volumetric physical space of the traveler with seat spaces of a plurality of seats in the list;v. a software module allowing the traveler to select a seat from the list;vi. a software module generating a travel avatar based on the physical information of the traveler, the travel avatar being three-dimensional; andvii. a software module allowing the traveler to visualize three-dimensional movement of the travel avatar in the selected seat, the traveler represented by the travel avatar and the selected seat represented by a virtual seat.
