The Synertic Speaker is a unique product that combines an aluminium base, a Bluetooth speaker, and an innovative adhesive surface. This universal stand supports all tablets or smartphones from 5" to 11", freeing users from the constraints of case or brand. The speaker, which holds the tablet as part of the stand, can also be used independently, adhering to any type of flat surface.
MAUREL FREDERIC was inspired to develop this product after successfully creating a universal stand for tablets. The team decided to evolve the product by using more of the potential of the adhesive surface, which now works to hold the tablet, or the associated Bluetooth speaker itself, multiplying the functionality of the product.
The stand is made of 100% Aluminium with a sandblasting finishing, necessitating the opening of a specific mould. The design is completed by a silicon block to winder cables or headphones. The speaker, of classic round shape, has been equipped with a 360° rotative adhesive head (silica gel) and a specific base design to click it to the stand aluminium base to support and rotate the tablet.
The Synertic Speaker is a testament to the power of design and technology. It's not just a stand or a speaker, but a multifunctional accessory that enhances the user's experience with their devices. It's practical for gaming use, perfect for listening to music wirelessly, and even allows for hands-free phone calls.
The design process for the Synertic Speaker was not without its challenges. The team had to ensure that the moulds for the stand and the speaker fit perfectly, and that the angle of the base provided stability regardless of the weight of the tablet it supports. They also had to ensure that factories could produce the parts with enough regularity that they could be combined or separated easily. Despite these challenges, MAUREL FREDERIC's team was able to create a product that is not only functional, but also aesthetically pleasing and innovative.
The Synertic Speaker is a shining example of the power of design and innovation. It's a testament to the creativity and technical skill of MAUREL FREDERIC and his team, and a worthy winner of the Golden A' Digital and Electronic Device Design Award. This product is a game-changer in the world of tech accessories, and we can't wait to see what MAUREL FREDERIC comes up with next.
