Motorised hinge-up mechanism for a TV concealed lying flat
HU is a Future Automation mechanism that keeps the screen lying horizontally inside a piece of furniture and tilts it up by 90° into the viewing position.
It suits cabinets of limited height: large screens can be hidden while the furniture stays low. It is integrated into bespoke furniture or architectural joinery, and every HU unit is made for the specific project, leaving designers and installers free in their choices. When not in use, the television disappears entirely.
