Surf the web in the rain
It's dark, it's raining but we can still access the internet or find a way home with just one umbrella. It is the internet parachute, a product of a group of students of Keio University, Japan.
It's dark, it's raining but we can still access the internet or find a way home with just one umbrella. It is the internet parachute, a product of a group of students of Keio University, Japan.
The internet is called Pileus , created by Matsumoto Takashi (27 years old, PhD student) and Hashimoto Sho (22 years old, graduate student) from Keio University under the direction of Professor Okude Naohito. In the rolling of the umbrella contains a camera, moving sensor, GPS global positioning system and a digital compass. This device is controlled by turning the pins.
The umbrella's handle has a small projector that can display the image on demand, so you can view images from the website on the inside of the umbrella. In addition, this umbrella can also take photos and upload to the internet through wireless, share videos like YouTube ...

The main function of this umbrella is to help users find their way through the 3D map display of Google Earth. The parachute will know where its location is via GPS and the current direction of travel through a digital compass mounted in the parachute. So the user can see the map around where they are and determine the direction of movement so easily.
Pileus is being introduced in many places in the world such as America, France, Australia and has won many awards in technology. The Pileus Group is currently working on a parachute-based, self-updating map that can be mapped to each location.
Pileus users can also view other people's photo albums (photo: TTO).
