Video: Phillip Frenzel explains in German how his iPhone case works
A new iPhone case developed by a German student detects the free fall of a device and quickly unblocks eight feet that dampen its impact.
you drop your iPhone X $ 1000, which has glass at the front and back, you can be sure you will crack on one side even from low Heights.
The answer is of course to put on a slim case, but phones can still break with these. The other option is to use a bulky box, which can ruin the appearance of the phone.
Phillip Frenzel, an engineer from Aalen University in Germany, is not a bulky housing fan, so he designed the Active Dampening System. system, a thinner case that has eight hidden elastic tabs that open when the phone falls and dampens its landing.
The case has sensors that can detect when it is in free fall and fast enough to open them.
The case itself is attached to the back of the phone with the legs tucked into a small hump that looks like the case of Apple's battery.
In its split state, four legs curl around the front of the phone, and four others bend back, protecting both sides and corners when the phone lands.
As seen in this video, closing the legs simply requires squeezing each pair together, then folding them back in the holster like a pocket knife.
The intelligent design earned the student an award from the German Society of Mechatronics. Frenzel wanted to develop a kind of airbag for phones when his phone broke after a fall.
The case, dubbed ADCase, is currently a prototype, but according to the Frenzel website, it plans to launch a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter shortly. 19659003] The case also includes an extra battery that can charge the phone, wirelessly or via USB cable. The cover is 4.9 mm (0.19 inches) thick, so that it would make an iPhone X 12.6 mm (0.5 inches) thick. The legs reach the front to give him a pad of three centimeters, or 1.2 inches.
Frenzel and his business partner Peter Mayer have developed AD cases for all iPhone models from the iPhone X to the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. 19659014] screen-shot-2018-06-29-at-14-26-10.png "height =" auto "width =" 770 "/>
