Abstract

An evacuation guidance system (130) may comprise a plurality of floor guidance lights (134), a plurality of seat guidance lights (136), a plurality of exit signs (132), and a controller (140) in communication with the plurality of floor guidance lights (134), the plurality of seat guidance lights (136), and the plurality of exit signs (132). The plurality of floor guidance lights (134) may include a plurality of fore-aft floor lights (134a) and a plurality of port-starboard floor lights (134b). The controller (140) may be configured to determine a closest exit door (104) to each floor guidance light, each seat guidance light, and each exit sign. The controller (140) may command each floor guidance light, each seat guidance light, and each exit sign to indicate a direction of the closest exit door (104).
