Apple may have delivered the most fragile of the iPhone this year, but we do not say that he does not care. One of his latest patents A system to drop the iPhone on its back in a fall and protect the screen.
Who has not dropped his smartphone? Do not lie. It happens to everyone. It is only then that will create two categories of users. On one hand, there are those who collect unscratched. On the other, those who pick the crumbs almost. Generally, the result is limited to a broken window and depends on the angle at which the smartphone hits the ground. It is obviously prevent the display absorbs shock but only luck can decide. Unless.
The various motion sensors usually present in a smartphone (accelerometer, gyroscope, etc.) would be used to determine when it is in free fall and its orientation. The data would then be sent to a processor that calcurerait the rotation angle and the smartphone would control the vibrator to put the flat back to the ground before impact. The question is whether this system is as easy to set up ... Now it seems that the iPhone screen exceeds 5 ", it would be good to integrate quickly.

Apple may have a solution!
Apple has clearly addressed the problem and have even found a way to guide the smartphone during the fall so that it falls on the right side. The principle seems actually quite simple and was described in a patent discovered in the database of the Office of Patents and Trademarks American . The most important point is probably no additional hardware would be needed.The various motion sensors usually present in a smartphone (accelerometer, gyroscope, etc.) would be used to determine when it is in free fall and its orientation.
