“We believe the community of devoted MacBook Air users will
welcome this new product, as AirBar for MacBook Air will surely
enhance the user-experience of an already great product,” said Remo
Behdasht, Senior Vice President of AirBar Devices at Neonode. “Our
goal for AirBar continues to be expanding its application to more
devices, across even more markets.”
AirBar was named a CES 2017 Innovation Awards Honoree in the
computer accessories category. The prestigious CES Innovation
Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA),
the producer of CES 2017, and products honored reflect innovative
design and engineering in some of the most cutting edge tech
products and services on the market.
The AirBar sensor is a sleek bar that magnetically attaches to
the bottom of a laptop display and plugs in via USB to instantly
activate touch and gesture capabilities, with no software
installation or additional configuration required. AirBar uses
parent company Neonode’s patented zForce AIR™ technology to emit an
invisible light field over a display that senses touch from
fingers, gloves and even a paintbrush. AirBar for PC comes in matte
black, and AirBar for MacBook Air comes in brushed aluminum. Among
many other useful and unique functionalities, AirBar alleviates
added weight and glare that is typically unavoidable with regular
touchscreen laptops.
AirBar for 15.6” PC laptops running Windows 10 now retails for
$69. AirBar for 13.3” and 14” PC laptops will be released with
AirBar for MacBook Air in early March. AirBar for MacBook Air will
retail for $99 through launch partner Amazon.com.
Leading online retailers currently carrying AirBar for PCs
include Amazon®, Best Buy®, QVC®, Staples® and Walmart®. AirBar for
MacBook Air is available for pre-order at www.air.bar/mac, and will
also be sold on Amazon.com. Neonode plans to extend AirBar
compatibility to additional MacBook® models and PC sizes within the
first half of 2017.
During CES, a suite of AirBar devices will be shown at Pepcom’s
Digital Experience!, one of the biggest consumer electronics
showcases that will take place Wednesday, Jan. 4, 2017 from 7:00 to
10:30 p.m., at the Mirage hotel.
