Sofshell Wows the Audience With Its Shock Absorbant Padding | Tech in Asia

Sofshell Wows the Audience With Its Shock Absorbant Padding | Tech in Asia: "Sofshell took our breath away when co-founder Dr. Elgin Yap dropped a whopping 12-pound bowling ball onto his iPhone – after placing his invention, the Sofshell padding, on top. After the impact, Dr. Yap assured the awed audience that his iPhone was working perfectly fine. The stunt was all part of the Demo Asia ‘emerging technology and trends’ segment.

The Singaporean startup Sofshell makes shock absorbent solutions, and aims to disrupt the industry with its invention. Dr. Yap, who has a PhD in neuroscience, demonstrated that the Sofshell material (pictured above) is malleable but hardens upon impact, which serves as an excellent solution to reduce and cushion impacts."
