Targus should be very happy – they’ve just scooped up a CES Innovation 2010 Design and Engineering Award for their very cool (pardon the pun) Targus Lap Chill Mat.
As the name suggests, the Targus Lap Chill Mat, keeps both your lap and laptop cool by optimising ventillation between the two. It’s powered by two USB-powered fans which facilitates continuous airflow ensuring a comfortable notebook experience whether you’re relaxing on the couch or in your bed. The highly ergonomic design of the Targus Lap Chill Mat also aides in effective typing and navigation on your laptop while preventing common computer related injuries such as RSI.
If you’re on using your laptop away from your desk for prolonged periods of time, I highly recommend a Targus Lap Chill Mat!
Grats to the Targus team gain!
Press Release for Targus Lap Chill Mat
Sydney, 24 February 2010 – The Targus Lap Chill Mat has been honoured in the
CES Innovation 2010 Design and Engineering Awards for its aesthetic design,
functionality and unique features. Targus’ innovative cooling device offers
a convenient, comfortable and ergonomic work surface that regulates the
temperature of laptops, when used on the lap as well as the work desk.The Awards, which are endorsed by the Industrial Designers Society of
America, are judged by a panel of independent industry designers, engineers
and media. Targus won its award in the Computer Accessories category, one of
36 categories overall. The judging criteria not only examined design and
engineering innovation, but also how the product compares to others in the
market.Resting on users’ laps, the Targus Lap Chill Mat disperses heat with dual
USB powered fans that provide ventilation, and features an open design
allowing the fans to run quietly. The ergonomic tilt makes typing easy,
whilst the soft neoprene base provides cushioned comfort on your lap. Four
rubber stops on the face of the Chill Mat prevent the laptop from slipping.“The Targus Lap Chill Mat meets a growing trend that is seeing laptop users
leaving traditional office environments and enjoying the flexibility and
freedom of working from home, in shared workspaces or on-the-go,” said
Targus Australia’s Accessories Product Manager, Aaron Shooter. “The
introduction of cooling devices to our everyday laptop use not only helps to
extend the laptop’s lifespan, but encourages faster performance, fewer
crashes and provides heat protection for work surfaces.”
