Mega Tiny Corp reinvents iPhone case in downtown Detroit

Mega Tiny Corp. has something more going for it than just a cool name. Its co-founders believe they have the next cool product for iPhones.

The 4-month-old startup is developing an iPhone case with suction technology built into it, enabling users to stick it against just about any flat surface. Check out a video showcasing it here.

"This is the first case to offer nano-suction material built into the case," says Carl Winans, co-founder of Mega Tiny Corp. "You can do hands-free selfies."

Most of the 10 people working on Mega Tiny Corp. are based in southeast Michigan and the company is about to sign a lease on an office in downtown Detroit. In the meantime, the team is finishing off a crowdfunding campaign to finance the manufacturing of its Zero Gravity iPhone case. Mega Tiny Corp. has raised $44,369 as of Monday night, by far exceeding its original $25,000 goal with 16 days left in the campaign.

"We met the goal in about four days," Winans says. "We're getting ready to add some stretch goals."
