"Invisible" Umbrella


For years, people have tried perfecting the design of the umbrella, to no avail. No matter what, they have always been prone to flipping inside-out or breaking. But now, designers in China have developed a new sort of handheld device called Air Umbrella that doesn't even have a flippable canopy or breakable metal spokes. Instead, this revolutionary "invisible" umbrella uses the power of air, streaming out in multiple directions, to redirect the rain, away from the person holding it upright.
