Abstract
A protective case for a mobile device has a body removably disposed on the mobile device and a movable lens cover disposed on the body proximate to the first camera lens. The movable lens cover includes a first lens occlusion section and a first sensor access section. The movable lens cover can have at least two positions in relation to the mobile device. A fully exposed position exposes both the first camera lens and the at least one sensor of the mobile device, and a first partially occluded position disposes the first lens occlusion section over the first camera lens preventing light from reaching the first camera lens and disposes the first sensor access section over the at least one sensor allowing the at least one sensor to receive the input.
Claims17
A protective case for a mobile device having a front face, a rear face, a top edge, a bottom edge, two side edges, a first camera lens, and at least one sensor receiving an input, the protective case comprising:
- a body removably disposed on the mobile device and covering at least a portion of at least one of the front face, the rear face, the top, bottom and two side edges of the mobile device;
- a movable lens cover disposed on the body proximate to the first camera lens, comprising:
- a first lens occlusion section;
- and
- a first sensor access section;
- wherein the movable lens cover has at least two positions in relation to the mobile device,
- wherein a fully exposed position exposes both the first camera lens and the at least one sensor, and
- wherein a first partially occluded position disposes the first lens occlusion section over the first camera lens preventing light from reaching the first camera lens and disposes the first sensor access section over the at least one sensor allowing the at least one sensor to receive the input.
A movable lens cover for a mobile device having a body, a first camera lens, and at least one sensor receiving an input, the movable lens cover comprising:
- a movable lens cover disposing section to movably and removably dispose the movable lens cover on the body proximate to the first camera lens;
- a first lens occlusion section;
- and
- a first sensor access section;
- wherein the movable lens cover has at least two positions in relation to the mobile device, wherein a fully exposed position exposes both the first camera lens and the at least one sensor, and
- wherein a first partially occluded position disposes the first lens occlusion section over the first camera lens preventing light from reaching the first camera lens and disposes the first sensor access section over the at least one sensor allowing the at least one sensor to receive the input.
