Thyrm is an American company founded by Andrew Frazier, a former medical device designer. Frazier has shifted course towards designing tactical gear, like this DarkVault 2.0. It's a chest-mounted rig for holding smartphones, designed to be used in "austere" environments encountered by the military or police.
The ruggedized case flips open at the bottom, allowing the user to view the screen. Snapped shut, it protects against dust, dirt and water.
Users can choose to expose a transparent portion of the case, allowing them to use their smartphone as a bodycam.
It can also be used to hold other sensitive equipment.
Thyrm sells the case in two different sizes, and in two different flavors: A Comms version that allows the phone to receive a signal, and a Blocking version that isolates the phone from transmitting (presumably to prevent interception).

These run $90 for the size Regular, and $95 for the Large.
