Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic, which can survive up to ten consecutive drops on asphalt, is here to say goodbye to broken screens.
Gorilla Glass Ceramic is a novel method of protecting mobile device screens that Corning has introduced. It is a component of a group of technologies intended to guard against screen damage while in use, or more accurately, when their integrity is jeopardized. According to Corning, Gorilla Glass Ceramic can resist asphalt drops for up to ten consecutive drops.
In addition to Gorilla Glass Amor, this proposal gives manufacturers the freedom to decide what kind of screen protection they wish to use. Why does Gorilla Glass Ceramic have such unique qualities? Corning's announcement regarding the technology's launch states that the proposal's main goal is to increase the drop resistance of different kinds of materials.
Corning specifically provided a number of data points that demonstrate this material's ability to endure constant drops on asphalt for a maximum of ten days. A simple drop can damage the integrity of the screen and the back of a mobile phone, as anyone who has owned one knows.
It is important to take into account Corning's claim that its new material can shield the device from drops for up to ten consecutive drops. For complete protection, Gorilla Glass Ceramic can also be applied to the device's back and display.
This material was tested by simulating a drop from a height of one meter onto an asphalt-like surface. It stands to reason that if you purchase a device that includes this material, it is not recommended to test its resistance unless you are certain of what might happen.
Corning also announced that Motorola will be the first company to invest in this new material. The material is expected to be launched in the next few months, giving other companies the opportunity to express their intentions to incorporate Gorilla Glass Ceramic into their device displays.
