GREAT BRITAIN -- /INNOVATION/newswire -- Oct 24, 2020

Anastasia Klimova unveils ReCover, a groundbreaking smartphone repurposing service, designed to combat e-waste and offer sustainable solutions for obsolete devices.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ReCover: Turning Obsolete Phones into Functional Devices

Anastasia Klimova, a visionary industrial designer, has introduced ReCover, a revolutionary smartphone repurposing service aimed at addressing the mounting issue of e-waste. With 7.1 billion smartphones produced since 2007 and only 12% recycled in the UK, ReCover offers a sustainable solution to repurpose obsolete phones, reducing environmental impact and providing users with affordable, functional hardware.

ReCover is a conceptual service that empowers non-tech-savvy users to repurpose their old phones into useful devices such as webcams, security cameras, or touchpads. The intelligent ReCover app scans the phone's hardware and firmware, presenting users with suitable repurpose options based on the device's condition. Once a repurpose solution is chosen, the app erases the current OS and installs a new one optimized for the device's new role.

The ReCover hardware is designed to be extremely affordable, made of recycled ABS plastic and utilizing off-the-shelf elements such as bi-colored LED panels. The service is intended to be offered directly by smartphone manufacturers, allowing them to profit from old devices by providing subscription-based services without the need for developing new hardware.

ReCover not only addresses the pressing issue of e-waste but also caters to the needs of users, particularly millennials, who seek simple and affordable repurpose solutions. With its potential to significantly reduce electronic waste, ReCover has been recognized with the prestigious Iron A' Design Award in 2021, highlighting its innovative and sustainable approach to repurposing technology.
