The Devium Dash audio system bridges the gap between car stereos and smartphones. Instead of relying on messy wire connectors to listen to music from iPhones, the Devium Dash stereo allows people to dock them straight into the car. Simple and convenient, this unique alternative also charges the iPhone while in use.
Designed by Paul Lizer, the Devium Dash stereo addresses the company’s observation that “smartphones provide a level of connectivity, accessibility, and usability that has not been possible in the car audio market.” It features a detachable faceplate with only one knob, which controls the volume easier than accessing it from the iPhone’s touchscreen. Other than that, people select and play music using the smartphone’s own interface.
