After the glowing purse, now here comes another one of those glitzy wonderful inventions ready to bright up your days! Especially your rainy ones!
The LightDrops Umbrella by Sang-Kyun Park is an ordinary looking umbrella with a special add-on: it carries an intelligent membrane conducting the energy from the falling rain to the embedded LEDs, lighting up instantly (and changing intensity – heavier the rain gets, brighter the LEDs shine!). I don’t know if standing under the umbrella light it’ll turn you into a star, but at least it’ll help you find the way in the rain! Would you buy one of those if they went into mass production? (via)

OMG yes! I love this idea, and would feel so much safer walking around with a lit-up brelly!
Yes, I like it. Its rather nifty and if it came in different colours yes I would like one as I do like brollys!
: )
This umbrella looks great! But in contrary to Sal I wouldn’t feel safer….I would be scared they see me coming from far! It depends on where you live I guess. Nevertheless I like to own one since I live in a country where it often rains and I “collect” umbrellas!
