Whether you’re vacationing, travelling, at home or at the office, it’s happened to the best of us – getting caught outside without our umbrellas. My last two trips to the New York City area have left me wet, soggy – and buying $9 umbrellas at the drug mart, that don’t get through customs on the way back.
But for all travellers and tourists – you’ll never have another miserable wasted afternoon with soggy pant cuffs again. MSNBC voted it one of the top travel gadgets to bring with you when travelling – and trust me; you will be impressed with the Ambient Umbrella.
What’s so special about this umbrella? It wirelessly receives up to date weather forecast feeds, or “datacasts.” For the upcoming 12 hours, if the forecast calls for rain, drizzle, snow, or thunderstorms, the handle will light up to inform you that you should take your umbrella with you that day. It even pulses to let you know what kind of precipitation you should expect.
In the increasing world of RSS feeds, blog rolls, link rolls, widgets, and information updating and data casting for easy access, Ambient Devices offers practical every day objects and tools that integrates today’s wireless technology. Other products by Ambient Devices include desk and coffee table items that have the same glowing colour changes depending on what kind of feed you set up: stock market, weather, golf conditions, ski conditions, traffic condition, and more.
A perfect gift for travellers, techies, gadget-geeks, clients and bosses this holiday season!
