Rhino Shield could be your future screen protector

Evolution Labs has started a Kickstarter project for a new screen protector technology called Rhino Shield, that protects your device’s display, even Gorilla Glass, from prints, scratches and impact.

Rhino Shield

Rhino Shield is a patent pending and custom formulated polymer made of six different layers (Oil repelling layer, Scratch resistant layer, Impact dispersion layer, Impact damping layer, High strength layer, and an Adhesive layer) combined in a sheet that is 0.029cm thin. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the any case, or on its own. Watch the demo below to see a Rhino Shield-protected iPhone 5 survive after getting hammered, stabbed, scratched and dropped.

Evolution Labs needs £50,000 in pledges and has received £2,843 so far. It has 27 days left so if you want to help out you can pledge £12 or more on their Kickstarter page and get a Rhino Shield for your device as a reward.
