Abstract	Aircrafts increasingly rely on embedded systems to enhance safety, efficiency, and passenger experience. This paper reviews existing applications of embedded systems in aviation, ranging from advanced avionics to in-flight entertainment (IFE) systems. It proposes new use cases that could shape the future of air travel. Current deployments such as fly-by-wire controls, predictive maintenance sensors, and seatback IFE networks are examined, highlighting their architecture and benefits. Building on this foundation, the paper introduces several novel concepts: an Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled smart cabin with sensor-integrated seats, real-time biometric-based passenger monitoring, and onboard AI-driven operational support. Each proposal is analyzed for technical feasibility, potential benefits, and challenges, including regulatory compliance, safety certification, cybersecurity, and integration complexities.The discussion underscores that while smart embedded systems promise significant improvements in airline operations and passenger comfort, careful design and compliance with aviation standards (e.g., physical network isolation for safety-critical systems) are necessary.
