Backward facing finger grip for a device

摘要

A gripping surface for an electronic device, such as a large mobile phone, which enables a user to hold the device more firmly with both one and two hands, and thus provide inputs to the front of the device over a wider area and or with greater precision. The grip is positioned at the center back of the body of the device and can be molded as part of the device, or the device case, or attached separately to either the device or device case. The grip consists out of a pattern of knobs and dimples that allow the index, middle and ring finger to exert a force inward toward the hand palm which balances that force against the edge of the device, as well as forces normal and parallel to the device which balance that force against of the weight of the device.
