Since pilgrims are already using umbrellas, our solution to this was a technology that solved some of their difficulties with an item they're already using.
This umbrella provides relief from the heat, GPS tracking as well as solar powered chargers for any device with a USB. For older people, it becomes a walking stick with a flashlight during the evenings.
Badawi has volunteered to help facilitate Muslim pilgrimage since he was just a boy. During his years of service, he began to understand through first-hand experience what pilgrims need the most, and thus the smart umbrella was born.
Haj pilgrims were using umbrellas for a long time only to protect themselves from the sun. From this he developed the idea of making it a multi-purpose one.
We worked together to create a product we hope will add value not only to the experiences of Muslims in the annual Haj season, but also to people around the world.
The multi-purpose umbrella transforms sunlight into electricity, which can then be used to generate power for the umbrella’s many features.
This means we always have electricity to not only charge mobile-phones, but computers as well. You can charge any device that can be connected via USB. The umbrella also comes with three different USB outlets to charge mobile phones, tablets and other portable devices including laptops.
The GPS system will help families stay together by helping each individual who has an umbrella easily identify where he or she is. Of course the GPS system comes with a mobile application that you can download and the pilgrim can verify his/her umbrella on this application, in turn making it much easier for pilgrims to communicate with one another.
The fan on the roof of the umbrella works on solar energy and gives you a breeze as great relief in hot climates. And the flashlight works well to direct you during the night time. It can be used a a walking stick as well. If you like, use it to read a book too!
We plan to market the amazing product across the world and seek investors to distribute the umbrella globally.
Refugees and people in developing countries with limited to access to resources will friend great value in an umbrella with these functions. Our hope is to make this product available for everyone who needs it.
Umbrellas are always in demand- especially in Europe! A product like this would be a great companion for adventurous travellers. They can use during an outing in the evening or an event during the hot sunny hours. Along with giving protection from sun, it gives you breeze, flashlight for night and, moreover, some solar energy make sure you devices won’t run out of power.
Getting the patent for the product was the first step. The second step was to start marketing it. Marketing needs special supervision, so we had to find a company capable of providing this supervision.
In order for our product to spread worldwide, we have to avoid marketing it as an exclusive Haj product.
Our hope is that an international company or government body will invest in our product to begin mass production. This means we can then make it available at an affordable price for anyone to buy.
Umbrellas will be ready for shipping in 6 months time.
