Summary
"Laptop" Case transforms two standard iPads into a powerful, laptop-style workstation. The iPads were 3D scanned and reverse engineered for the case to be designed around. An intuitive screw-axle release system was developed that allows the user to achieve three modes: Laptop Mode: Secure the two units together for a seamless dual-screen experience. Solo Mode: Quickly decoupling the units to be used as individual tablets. Stowed Configuration: Utilising the integrated grab-handle for easy transport.
