Thread: In iBrella

Here's an interesting idea for the gadget. If you want to really strange way to manage your iPod and do not mind carrying an umbrella around, the iBrella may be right for you.

At strange that this gadget is that it is not what you expect. Unlike with buttons on the handle, you actually control the iPod to motions with the umbrella.

Almost everything you will do with your iPod can be done with the movement of an umbrella. In iPod simply plugs in the bottom of the umbrella handles and makes everything else. Some examples of the opening and closing an umbrella to play and pause, twisting the auspices of certain changes in the volume and switch tracks, and shake the auspices play random ways.

I think you need to look a little ridiculous to walk on the street shaking your umbrella or twisting his intense look on your face, as I am sure it takes a little bit of skills that it needs, what you want;).

While I doubt this gadget will make substantive gadget world, it is still very gently concepts and shows what can be done with strange ideas in your head. For photos of all applications, check proto-Teepen; have even videos!
