Description

    CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/479,948 filed May 12, 2011, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention generally relates to a device to connect a strap or lanyard to secure a handheld device. More particularly, the present invention relates to a device to connect a flexible strap or lanyard to a smartphone, a smartphone case, or a handheld computer tablet.
  • The functional use of electronic handheld devices, such as smartphones and computer tablets, continue to be increasingly technically capable. The electronic handheld devices are being used as educational tools for those including the physically and mentally challenged, as medical and athletic data collection devices, field equipment for scientific study, highly capable still and video cameras, and military battlefield communication and location devices. The technical possibilities of the electronic handheld devices will continue to advance quickly. Unfortunately the functional and safety to use the electronic handheld devices is limited by the lack of capability to physically secure them such as by wrist strap, neck lanyard, or strapping them to another device.
  • A physically challenged person using a handheld computer tablet could use a lanyard to help keep from dropping the device. A person using a smartphone to take a photo could use a strap to secure the device not only for taking a better photo but to keep from dropping the smartphone.
  • As can be seen, there is a need for a device that allows the user to easily and safely retrieve a handheld device from a pocket or purse.
