Elite HTS Offers Up an Ergonomically Designed Chair Specifically Custom Tailored for Optimum iPad Use


Sitting in the sleek new iPad Chair, it's hard not to feel a bit like a Star Fleet Officer on the bridge of the Enterprise as you stare into a big beautiful touch panel. As the whisper quiet motor reclines the seat back while raising the foot rest, you are swaddled by the ergonomically designed chair. Strategically placed lumbar support, elbow positioning, and a seat cushion normally found in a European sports car, all combine to help create the ultimate iPad experience.



iPad over the shoulder

With the Luxa2 H4 iPad holder firmly securing the remarkable device in its tight grasp with its 6 rubber pins, you can now wield the power of the iPad in total relaxation with both hands free. The holder slides into the existing cupholder of the Elite HTS chair, and can then swivel and pivot 360 degrees. In addition, the iPad can be rotated vertically or horizontally, and can even be positioned flat like a table. Like malleable modeling clay, a dynamic mechanical joint hinge holds any position, and delivers all the pivoting action.

Company founder and CEO Bobby Bala explains why he was inspired to create a more relaxing iPad experience. "The iPad is a user friendly, relaxing tool that allows you to complete tasks in a fun, efficient, and enjoyable way. The one drawback however, is that it can be a bit difficult to find the optimum ergonomic position when using it, especially since one hand is usually required to hold it. We wanted to enhance the iPad experience by increasing the comfort level of the user.
Our testing indicates this increases the level of interaction and escapism with the device. "

FEEL THE BASS

Feel the Bass

Elite HTS is proud to offer the Crowson TES 100 (Tactile Effects System) as a premium option.

Crowson Technology's patented LDD technology delivers the world's only audiophile-grade low frequency motion.

The Crowson product was awarded the About.com Home Theater Product of the Year for 2005.

Unique among low-frequency devices, the Crowson Linear Actuator sits on the floor and the seating is placed on top of it. Elite HTS goes one step further and recesses the Actuator within the arm, so it is out of sight. The weight of the chair compresses the Actuator and then comes to life as it intelligently detects low frequency sound effects, delivering tight, realistic physical motion instead of just creating a vibrating or buzzing effect like traditional bass enhancing products.

From the barely perceptible resonance of a cello, to an earth quaking rocket launch, Crowson Motion with Elite HTS transports you into a visceral experience.
