Parasols are regular umbrellas that come equipped with additional technological features. Whereas regular umbrellas only provide shelter from rain, parasols aim to enhance the user experience through connectivity and added functionality. Some of the main features commonly found on parasols include the ability to connect to a mobile app, LED lighting, location tracking, and environmental sensors. Let's take a closer look at some of these innovative parasol features.

Connectivity and Smart Umbrella

Most parasols can pair with a companion mobile app via Bluetooth connectivity. This allows users to control certain Smart Umbrella functions from their phone. Basic app controls may include opening/closing the umbrella or turning built-in lights on/off. More advanced apps provide additional features like checking the local weather forecast, setting notification reminders to close the umbrella, and finding the umbrella's location if lost or misplaced. The mobile app connectivity enables convenient remote control and additional useful umbrella-related functions.

Integrated Lights and Light Functions

Many parasols incorporate energy-efficient LED lights that run along the umbrella ribs or canopy edges. Common light functions include changing through multiple colors, flashing emergency strobe lights, or staying lit for visibility in low light conditions. The lights are typically activated through a physical button on the umbrella handle or through the connected mobile app. The integrated lighting adds an extra safety feature when carried at night or during inclement weather conditions.
