A large smartphonemaker, probably Samsung, want new appliances water-resistant go through a nanocoating. This allows devices to operate under water. That says the manufacturer of that coating, HzO.
In addition to a deal with a smartphonemaker is HzO also close to a cooperation with a maker of headphones, says the British site Pocket-lint, on the basis of a conversation with a representative of the company. The technology should be “next smartphoneseizoen’ for the first time on smartphones. Ultimately, HzO do business with all the major smartphonefabrikanten.
The technology is distinguished by the design of smartphones does not need to be adapted to the devices waterproof. Smartphones, which until now waterproof, like the Motorola Defy and Sony Ericsson Xperia Active, had, by means of special waterproof housings, and valves to be protected against moisture. Fluid that is known as the greatest contributor to damage in smartphones and mobile phones.
HzO puts nowhere on the site how the technology works, but says that the effect is achieved with a thin layer of chemicals that repels water. That low is applied to the components, so that no short circuit can create. The layer can therefore not by the user itself to be applied. HzO sell yourself also existing products of the layer are provided, such as the various iPod models, including the Samsung Galaxy S II and Motorola Razr.
