The Pileus umbrella has been making its rounds for approximately one year already, but until now there is no official word on whether it will be made on a commercial scale or not. This unique umbrella comes with a projector attached to its handle, displaying images and information on the umbrella itself when open. The Pileus even comes with an integrated umbrella, taking photos and uploading them to an online photo album (Flickr) when connected to the Internet via WiFi. The prototype looks as though it packs a pretty mean punch, which is always a good thing. While it might not be the most expensive umbrella in the world when released, it will definitely be the most technologically packed version.
