This 'mobile airbag' saves your phone

amsterdam - A welcome invention for telephone users who regularly drop their phones. A German student has the solution: an airbag for the mobile phone.

The invention of Philip Frenzel already earned him several innovative awards. Philip developed the ADCASE. A phone case that activates an airbag when it falls down.

Phili dropped his phone three years ago. The screen of his iPhone was broken into thousands of pieces. After the fall he bought a number of phone cases, but these did not give his phone enough protection.

Philip developed sensors that activate springs when your phone falls down. These ensure that your screen survives the falls.
