Benefits of technology

The invention is a multimedia fireplace console that allows users to easily enjoy movies or music using a single cable connection. The console has a heating unit that can be detached for storage and a supporting device with an air chamber that acts as a heat insulator. The console also has a fireproofing layer to prevent fire and heat transmission, as well as a surround sound system with speakers placed in front of the console for optimal audio quality. The technical effects of this invention include convenience, safety, and improved audio and visual experience for users.

Problems solved by technology

With the development of technology, sound systems have become increasingly more complex to install as well as operate.
It can be difficult for many people to correctly connect the cables and wires of the sound system.
If the 3D surround sound system is misplaced, the user will experience poor quality adding to the frustration and an eventual need to reinstall the plurality of speakers of the 3D surround sound system.
Current furniture is generally lacks the corresponding structural design which can help the user to correctly position the speakers from the 3D surround sound system.
Yet many people who have fireplaces are reluctant to use them because of the associated pollution and preparation involved.
Burning logs not only can produce pollutants that are harmful to the environment, but the burning logs produce ash and soot along with heat that can adversely affect any electronics in a close proximity to the fireplace.
On the other hand, not everyone has a fireplace in their living environment but that should not mean that they cannot be able to enjoy the same comforts of having one.
Despite their mobility, portable heaters don't solve the problem of certain size constraints for some rooms.
This can create space issues when trying to house an entertainment system and a heater within a small room.
Many products on the market seek to solve one of the aforementioned problems, but never truly seek to solve all.
