Technology and design are no longer strange bedfellows , as the recent A&D trend has been to mesh the two. The Hi-tech Conference table from DuPont is a brilliant example of how designers are aware of the consumers increasing dependence on technology. At the heart of the table lies iPad support, since it comes equipped with 16 docking stations. Since the iPads get docked securely, the chances of theft and accidents are reduced and one can customize the conference table according to their needs.
