Abstract

An impact protection system for a carrying case. The system includes at least one impact protection panel that is inserted in between an exterior side wall and an interior storage compartment of a carrying case, wherein the interior storage compartment is adapted for receiving a portable computer or other delicate instruments or objects. The impact protection panel includes a base portion and an elevated portion and is positioned so that when an impact to the exterior side wall of the case occurs, the force of the impact is first received by the elevated portion and is then distributed via the elevated portion throughout the base portion before impacting a portable computer or other instrument or object stored in the storage compartment of the case.
