The live video calling feature is integrated with the latest technology to connect and assist users remotely. While the V8 Mobility With iPad is designed for aircraft crew to obtain information at their fingertips among others, passenger manifest, meal selection, special needs, and cabin layout.

"The goal is to turn one of air travel's most time-consuming and tedious experiences - waiting in a queue - into something hassle-free to give more personal control over their travel experience," Last year, Singapore's Changi Airport has begun its start-to-end automated processes, from checking in to baggage tagging and aircraft boarding at Terminal 4 to provide a fast and seamless travel to passengers. A total of 100 units of VTM and V8 Mobility With iPAD will be produced to be marketed in Singapore. "Our machines complement the idea of an automated airport such as Changi Airport. The machines are optimised for efficiency as passengers are able to manage a full-range of services from ticketing, check-in, tagging, and EMV payment, all done within minutes. "The machines are designed to handle daily over the counter services, minimise operation and staffing cost," he said. He said the V8 Mobility With iPAD was designed with an intuitive interface to enable easy communication between aircraft crew and passengers. "The mobile device makes in-flight retail activities easy as it keeps track of inventories, purchase, and loyalty points. Also, crew can share information with ground staff to enable rapid intervention of aircraft defect or maintenance needs," he said. The machines are powered by Alexis Software, a proprietary software by Emerico.
