3D model description

I've tried many sound deflectors for my iPad mini, all had flaws, one of which is loosing much of the bass response and stereo separation the iPad's little speakers have.

I decided to design my own. It turns out the angle and thickness of the deflecting surface matters a lot. After 7 prototypes I share with you my final results:

  • Good stereo separation when used in portrait mode
  • Maximum amplification without loosing the bass
  • Small and ergonomic, you can leave it on all the time without adding much bulk
  • Stable design won't fall off the iPad
  • You can connect the lightning cable when in use

IMPORTANT NOTE: it's designed to fit over the iPad mini with the Smart Case. If you don't have the case I won't fit.

3D printing settings

The Hugger is designed to fit the iPad mini with a smart case.

Print using small supports for the "hands".

It's a fast and easy print, About 50 minutes at 0.15mm
