Exoskeleton - interesting iPad case Kickstarter project

eXoskeleton

eXosheleton is the name of concept iPad case that is currently under a Kickstarter project in search of funding. This is a case which provides a way to hold the iPad a hand with ease (according to its creator anyway) and is also usable as a stand.

I saw a few iPad accessories that help keep the iPad a hand, and it appears as it would stand up against people. I don't know if exoskeletal would be a great success that it gets on the market, but I certainly think that there are some worst accessories for the iPad to be sold.

Here is more information and background on the project, directly from Ken Hellewell, the man behind the project Kickstarter:

The exoskeleton (patent pending) keeps elegant profile the iPad while adding a handful of super finger secure on the back that makes unique discount a breeze. Ever feel like you need both hands to carry your iPad around in the room.

The exoskeleton is the result of many drawings, models and prototypes in an effort to find the optimal shape for the single hand operation. Unlike other cases dealing with this issue, we do not add protrusions intrusive or bulky covers. They are not necessary.

Protection

Exoskeletal protects all four corners, screen and back. No part of the iPad ever comes into contact with the table. (or the floor!)

Stability

The four runners raised that when they are placed on the back, the iPad will not rock or wobble when typing or touch screen to navigate. They also distribute impact forces at the highest part of the iPad; the corners.

Work and display

Four double skates as connection points for the legs included. We are using standard threads and shoulder screws that opens the door to all kinds of ideas of editing you have - including legs longer and shorter in your local store of hardware, handles or even hanging on a wall! Legs allow the iPad set upright for display in landscape mode or portrait. They also raise the tip when typing inclined or surface navigation.
