Benefits of technology

This patent describes a design for a handheld device that includes a layer that has multiple cushioned areas to protect it from shock and impact. This helps to protect the device from damage when it is dropped or hit.

Problems solved by technology

Currently available protective cases, however, frequently require a person to choose between form and function.
For example, a person may be required to choose between a case that offers great aesthetic appeal with insufficient protective qualities and a case that offers excellent protective features with poor aesthetic appeal.
Additionally, many of the currently available protective cases are made from a single type of material that limits the protective benefits the case that can provide.
Furthermore, cases that do incorporate multiple types of materials are often a multi-piece design that is bulky and not user friendly.
