TVs keep getting brighter and sharper, but the viewing experience is still broken up by small, annoying tasks. Getting up for a drink, fiddling with lights, or pausing mid-scene to adjust the volume. These micro-interruptions chip away at immersion more than we admit. Come Together is a concept that tries to design around those gaps instead of just upgrading the panel, treating the home theater as a full ecosystem rather than a screen on a wall.
Come Together is a three-part home theater system made up of a Tower, a Base, and a Station. It’s meant to sit alongside a premium TV as an accessory, not replace it. The Tower handles drinks, lighting, and phone charging. The Base handles spatial sound and movement. The Station is a compact dock that cools, charges, and keeps everything ready for the next movie night.

Most of the time, the Tower sits as a calm black cylinder, but when needed, it rises up to reveal a mini fridge that can hold up to five cans. An optional tray on top can be swapped in for snacks. Adaptive mood lighting under the top disc syncs with what’s on screen, and the very top surface doubles as a Qi2 wireless charging pad for your phone, so it doesn’t die halfway through a marathon.
Instead of a static soundbar, the Base is a circular spatial sound unit with drivers arranged around its perimeter and a 3D ToF sensor for spatial awareness. It maps the room, figures out where you’re sitting, and quietly rolls itself to the best spot for audio. The drive system borrows from robot vacuums, but here the goal is better sound rather than clean floors or delivering drinks in an awkward dance.
The Station is a small, low-profile dock that the system returns to when it’s done. There, it recharges and cools the mini fridge for the next session. A simple display on top shows the time and the fridge temperature, giving you just enough information at a glance. The Station keeps the whole setup feeling like a single, coherent appliance rather than a pile of separate gadgets fighting for outlets and attention.
All three components share a cylindrical, black-glass aesthetic that feels more like high-end audio gear than robots. The Tower’s rising motion and glowing top give it a bit of theater without tipping into gimmick. The Base and Station stay visually quiet, so the TV remains the focal point while the system supports it in the background, both literally and in how it shapes the room.
Come Together shows how robotics might slip into home entertainment without feeling like sci-fi props. By bundling drinks, lighting, and spatial sound into a calm, coordinated system, it treats immersion as something you can design from end to end. For anyone who’s ever hit pause just to grab a drink, the idea of a home theater that comes to you is appealing.
