Researchers develop game to teach in-flight safety

Frequent flyers are prone to not pay attention to the flight attendant’s safety spiel at the start of the flight. Researchers from the University of Udine want to make sure you know your in-flight safety information through a game they’ll be releasing on Android, iOS, Windows Phone, and PCs. Learn To Brace teaches you how to brace yourself for impact in case of a crash. The game wants you to tweak and adjust the position of the virtual passenger. It will then provide you feedback about whether the passenger survives the crash and how bad the injuries are. It is admittedly morbid but perhaps it might teach people to pay extra attention to in-flight safety.
