Rain Forecasting Umbrella

Rain Forecasting Umbrella
Gear  |  Design
The materious's umberlla can forecast the rain weather. This umberlla packed a LCD handle that can glow the light. The white lighting indicates sun, the light bule lighting indicates lighting rain, the blue lighting indicates it will rain, you should bring the umberlla. How does it know the weather info? This umberlla can wirelessly download the today weather information from the internet via wi-fi. Forecast's lighted umbrella handle glows more intensely with the increased chance of precipitation offering a clear and unobtrusive signal to the user. I love this concept design.

too much technology for an umbrella

stick a barometer and a hygrometer in the handle and achieve the same goal
