The AirBar device is a sleek, thin matte black bar that
magnetically attaches to the bottom of a laptop display for easy
installation. AirBar instantly connects through a USB port and
requires no software installation or additional configuration.
AirBar uses parent company Neonode’s patented zForce AIR™
technology to emit an invisible light field over a laptop screen
that senses touch from fingers, gloves and even a paintbrush. This
gives users the ability to flip through a digital cookbook without
removing their oven mitt or teach their kids how to draw and paint
without the messy art supplies, for example.
“We developed this product knowing there is really nothing else
like it on the market,” said Remo Behdasht, senior vice president
of AirBar Devices at Neonode. “People want touchscreen
capabilities, but until now their options were very limited by
brand and cost. Our successful pre-order phase was further
confirmation of the massive appeal and demand for this device.”
AirBar alleviates battery drain, added weight and glare that
typically comes with touchscreen laptops. AirBar retails for $69
and is offered in three size options to fit 13.3”, 14” and 15.6”
screens.
AirBar is currently available at www.air.bar and will also be
sold online at Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), Best Buy (NYSE: BBY), CDW
(NASDAQ: CDW), Dell, Newegg, and Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT).
