Abstract

The goal of the Ergo Carbon Workspace is to create a monitor stand that is both lightweight and easily transportable, catering to the needs of modern workspaces. Constructed from carbon fiber, epoxy resin, and a honeycomb core, this design emphasizes portability without sacrificing durability. Incorporating aerospace-grade honeycomb core as well as braided carbon fiber epoxy struts bolsters structural integrity while maintaining a lightweight part. The Ergo Carbon Workspace design facilitates effortless assembly and disassembly, simplifying transportation and packaging. Through the utilization of composite materials, the stand achieves an optimal balance of strength and portability. Ergo Carbon Workspace will also incorporate motorized adjustability, adding to its functionality and versatility. This feature enhances user experience and provides additional utility beyond traditional monitor stands. Beyond its ergonomic advantages, the Ergo Carbon Workspace also contributes to sustainability efforts by minimizing its carbon footprint. Engineered to withstand environmental factors like water exposure and UV radiation, this monitor stand ensures longevity and reliability in a variety of work environments.
