Morph airline seating.
Traveling by air on a budget isn’t pleasant. Despite huge leaps forward in comfort for the upper classes (and the more recent “premium economy” class), the economy section of a cabin is more often than not cramped, packed, and charmless.

GE rolls out their vision of the future. Sometimes we often wind up with a bunch of design concepts that have zero chance of making it to market because those design concepts are usually designed for “the home of 2050” or some other far-off date that nobody’s really thinking about yet.
