New Invention Elevates Tablets and Smartphones to Provide Optimal Viewing

CHICAGO - March 28, 2013 - PRLog -- People who are always looking down at their Kindle®, iPad®, iPhone®, and Galaxy® devices now have a good reason to look up thanks to the launch of a clever product called Smart-Mount™.

The tablet and smartphone mount allows users to easily set up a secure ergonomic stand using standard camera tripods and other photography accessories. “Wherever you want to watch movies, read ebooks, capture high resolution photography, or record stabilized high definition video, you can conveniently carry and quickly set up the hands-free mount for on-the-go use,” said Kurt Woolford, inventor of Smart-Mount™.

Woolford invented the mount after he realized there was not a universal ergonomic solution to conveniently use with his tablets and smartphones.  He set out developing one with a design focus from the conclusions of a recent collaborative study by the Harvard School of Public Health and Microsoft.

What did Harvard and Microsoft say that changes everything? The study found that tablet users may be at high risk to develop neck discomfort based on behaviors driven by the limitation of tablet designs.  The study suggests that head and neck posture can be improved through designs that allow for optimal viewing angles and elevating the device.

"Finally, the last mount I will ever have to buy!” replied J.P., a recent customer. To use the mount, users set a self-adhesive belt clip onto a separate plastic case that fits their specific device. The clip rotates to allow users to switch their devices between portrait and landscape orientation.  The Smart-Mount™ adapter was reverse-engineered to securely lock into the clip. The versatile adapter has camera tripod threading for use with other photography accessories. Users can quickly attach and detach their device onto the adapter.

The universal kit works with any mobile device and includes a rotating clip with adhesive pad, adapter, and a premium quality adjustable mini tripod. It is currently available for $19.99 on Amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/Clip-Case-Universal-Ergonomic-Tablet-Smartphone/dp/B00A1D48K4/
