iBand Is An iPhone Case That Uses Non-Newtonian Fluids
The iBand is made from a material produced by a company called d3o. They make a flexible polymer that falls within the category of Non-Newtonian fluids. In a nutshell, these ?fluids?, um, flow under normal conditions but harden quickly upon sudden impact. Some of you may have seen that Mythbusters episode where they run around barefoot on a mixture of cornstarch and water. This product is kind of like that. Only now you can have it as armor for your iPhone. Used normally, it?s like a rubber case but if you drop it it?ll harden instantly and provide up to 134% more impact protection than most other cases.
