Know this phone case that works as an "airbag"

Philip Frenzel an engineer from the University of Aalen, Germany, invented a mobile phone device that deploys springs in the corners of the cell when the sensors feel the free fall .

Serious damage to equipment is avoided, often resulting in costly repairs. Therefore, it works as a airbag or an airbag because, in case of an accident, this mechanism activates and activates the springs that will bounce the phone.

After the fall, just enter these coins are returned to their blankets. Thus, it is not necessary to invest in shockproof cell phone cases that never meet their promises.

This idea was rewarded by the " German Society for Mechatronics ", which reviews student projects in Germany. At first, Frenzel planned to add a real airbag but it was not practical

Many still consider what could happen if the springs are activated in a pocket, but apparently all this has already been badyzed.

For now it's just a prototype, but its creator hopes to launch it soon on the market.
