The one limit technology has is that files aren't always transferable from one platform to the next, so the Wormhole Station was created as a solution.
The Wormhole Station is a docking station for laptops that takes the form of a slender bar. What it does is allow file transferring between different software and operating system. In other words, users can move data between Mac, PC, iOS and Android devices. The rear has two USB 3.0 ports that will allow lightning speed transfers at 5Gb/s and slots for different memory cards. The Wormhole Station attaches itself to the laptop and when attached, it props up the computer at an angle. This will help circulate airflow so that overheating can be prevented.
The Wormhole Station recently listed as a CES 2012 Innovations Award Honoree.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Multi-platform File Transfer
- The trend for developing technology that allows seamless file transfers between different software and operating systems.
- Docking Stations for Laptops
- The trend for creating docking stations that not only add functionality but also provides health benefits by improving airflow.
- Seamless Cross-device Integration
- The trend for developing technologies that allows information and data to be shared between devices with different operating systems.
Sectors Adopting This
- Technology
- There is a significant opportunity for companies that develop software and hardware that better enable cross-device functionality and file transfers.
- Consumer Electronics
- Companies that produce consumer electronics, like laptops, could benefit from creating docking stations that provide added functionality and added comfort to consumers.
- Engineering and Manufacturing
- Manufacturing companies can focus on providing innovative docking station designs that can revolutionize the electronics industry.
