Klaxoon, the champion of teamwork and smartwork pioneer unveils Teamplayer, the first mobile console which transforms our working environment to make it more inspiring, more participative and more human. Teamplayer can turn any screen device into a smart collaborative workspace. Teamplayer has just received two CES innovations awards in both Mobile Device and Computer Hardware categories.   

Teamplayer in a nutshell:

  • The first compact work console which turns any screen device into a smart collaborative workspace.
  • A unique set of adaptative controllers inspired by the world of art and gaming.
  • Access to a collection of teamwork tools.
  • A new way to interact with your favorite applications.

Welcome to the smartwork era

Teamworks draws on the interactive and playful spirit of video games and on the power and ergonomics of digital music-making tools to revolutionize our working environment and the way we interact in teams. Mouse and screen, paperboards, email or slides all fail to overcome the new challenges we face at work: abolition of physical and time barriers, dramatic increase of information flow, expanding number of teams and projects… Time has come for new powerful, smooth, intuitive and inspiring tools that can change the way we work in the same way it transformed art and music.

In a mobile and multidimensional work environment, conventional screens and workstations reduce interactions and make us less creative and capable to express our ideas. On the contrary, with its smart controllers and its sets of shortcuts by way of adaptative screens and customizable keys, Teamplayer unleashes interactions and puts the human dimension back at the center of our workspace.

Smart controllers for unique interactions

Klaxoon Teamplayer comes with a set of innovative smart controllers with interactive screens that adapt in real-time to our actions: the Pad and the Wheel. Engineered to stimulate and facilitate actions, they can be used to answer questions, browse through ideas on a brainstorm, launch a quiz, take part intuitively and instantaneously in a vote… Ultra-flexible and customizable, they provide physical and smart shortcuts to perform whatever action, connect to applications or services we wish to perform. Deeply innovative, Teamplayer’s new interface offers a smoother transition from physical to digital environments.

The wheel: compact, it fits in one hand and allows you to navigate your way through various activities. Turn, push, grab or press to discover a totally new way to access information, select, vote, answer questions, receive notifications and interact with them.

The Pad: with its 9 adaptative screen keys, the Pad offers visual and smart shortcuts that adapt to our actions in real-time. They open up a new field for expression and collaboration.

A new ultra-customizable open platform.

Teamplayer not only works with teamwork tools designed by Klaxoon. It comes with the possibility to use your favorite apps with new user experience. Application developers can fully customize Teamplayer with any types of shortcuts and actions and combine up to 7 connected controllers. Teamplayer users too can customize their set to get the most out of this new collaborative workspace.

A revolution

«Teamplayer breaks away with ergonomic conventions, says Matthieu Beucher, Klaxoon’s CEO. It brings much more fun to work when interacting, expressing ideas, processing information in a more intuitive way and inventing new ways to interact. We are really keen to see how everyone will take hold of Teamplayer to transform the way they collaborate and build more human workspaces »

Klaxoon Teamplayer will be launched in June 2020.
