In its effort to provide mobile device owners with the most protective cases for the latest mobile devices, Trident Case® today announced the expansion of its Kraken A.M.S and Cyclops series to protect the new Apple® iPad Air 2. The introduction was made at CES 2015 in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center in Booth #5512.

“We are excited to expand our toughest and most durable cases to protect Apple’s newest products,” Trident Vice President of Marketing, Vickie Achee stated. “Trident is determined to continue providing the best protection for all of the latest technology. With the most secure cases on the market, our customers can rest assured that their new devices will be able to withstand everything from brutal conditions to everyday wear-and-tear.”

The Kraken A.M.S. series offers Trident’s maximum level of protection for the iPad Air 2, constructed with polycarbonate and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to provide dual layer protection that includes a permanent screen protector to prevent scratches. These ultra-tough cases meet the Military Standard MIL-STD-810F for protection from drops, dust, rain, sand and vibration.

The Kraken A.M.S. case is fully adaptable to any lifestyle, as it includes a twist-and-lock attachment port at the back of the case that supports a variety of accessories such as the A.M.S. Tablet Stand and dozens of mounts from Arkon. New iPad owners can enjoy the convenience of mounting their device on any type of surface, including desks, dashboards, car headrests and more.

The Cyclops series is constructed with polycarbonate and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to provide dual layer protection. Cyclops cases feature a built-in, scratch resistant screen protector to keep out dirt and moisture, while TPE plugs cover power ports and audio jacks to protect the tablet from dust and debris. The bio-enhanced plastic construction makes the case 100 percent eco-friendly by being degradable, compostable, and recyclable.

The Kraken A.M.S. and Cyclops series will debut in black, blue, pink, green and white. Both series are available online at www.tridentcase.com now.

Pennsylvania Special Needs Class Makes High Tech Education A Sustainable Model

In one of the special needs classrooms at Quaker Valley Middle School in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, tablets are integrated into lesson plans each day. With seven Apple® iPads, teacher Jason Harrison transformed his traditional classroom into an intimate learning experience that enables students with disabilities to interact with the materials at hand. In order to protect his school’s investment in innovative classroom technology, Harrison searched for the most protective tablet cases. He eventually turned to Trident’s Kraken A.M.S. and Aegis cases and Arkon mounts, a solution that simultaneously protects and locks down tablets.
 
“We have had the cases for about a year,” Harrison explained, “and they are still in perfect condition after being used every day. It was a necessary investment, and we made the right choice by choosing Trident cases.”
 
One of the determining factors in choosing Trident cases was the compatibility with professional-grade mounts from Arkon. In the classroom, Harrison uses the mounts to securely fasten tablets to the edge of each student’s desk. “The mounts diminish the variable of having to pick up the iPad and move it, enabling students to focus directly on the lesson,” he said.
 
Harrison, a teacher of thirteen years, currently oversees seven special needs students, many of which are accompanied by a personal attendant. He utilizes the latest tablet applications, such as UPAD, a traditional note-taking application with photo and caption capabilities. “UPAD allows students to highlight and edit the PDF material I post,” Harrison said.
 
Similarly, the app Educreations acts as a virtual whiteboard, bridging the gap between each student and the teacher. The app allows instructors to create new lesson plans before class time, which are later launched through the application. Other capabilities include voice recording and recognition and handwriting analysis for students.
 
“As I began teaching, I asked myself, ‘how can we naturally integrate this technology? How can the iPad replace basic classroom tools such as the whiteboard, markers, and the calculator?’ Now, teachers can grab an app to accompany each need and find a natural fit for the classroom,” he said.

According to Harrison, as technology becomes more important in the classroom, teachers will require the toughest cases to protect against the wear-and-tear of daily use. “I would absolutely recommend Trident cases to any classroom. We are trying to get them introduced into every special needs classroom at Quaker Valley,” he said.
 
Trident is proud to manufacture cases that are ideal for education environments and teamed up with Arkon mounts to give educators strong mounting solutions for every teaching environment.
 
According to Erin Luzzi, Vice President of Marketing at Trident Case, “We are thrilled to see our Aegis and Kraken A.M.S. cases being put to such good use in a special needs classroom. In collaboration with Arkon Mounts, Trident is leading the way in protecting tablets in innovative environments and we will continue to do so as technology becomes exponentially more important for learning.”
