The briefcase-sized Tempus IC telemedicine system puts non-medical cabin crew in contact with ground-based experts during in-flight medical emergencies.Key information about the passenger’s health can be quickly transmitted via satellite to a dedicated response centre.
Watch the in-flight demo video on a BMI flight.
