Concerns about the fall of the cell phone can be softened with a hood that promises to cushion the drop of the device. As a kind of airbag, the accessory illuminates when the smartphone is in the fall and activates a protection system. In this way, the housing prevents the screen and other fragile elements of the cell, such as the screen, from breaking with the impact.
Created by Philip Frenzel, an engineer at the University of Aalen, Germany, the award-winning invention is still under patent approval. There is no marketing forecast for the product. It has a spring system that protects the cell against falls.

They are hidden in the accessory structure and are activated whenever a set of sensors identifies that the smartphone is in free fall. In the demonstration video, the prototype is agile enough to activate the mechanism while the device falls.
The springs promise to be stiff enough to protect the cell from falling concrete. At the same time, they are arranged to allow the user to easily grasp the mechanism by hand after successful activation.
