Rather than use something relatively intangible like air/fire, or something as amorphous as water, perhaps it would be better to make an umbrella out of a solid material. Maybe some sort of fabric made of nylon, polyester, and pongee, connected to thin metal spokes to help hold its shape. You could even make the spokes fold inward when not in use for ease of portability... Actually now that I think about it, there's no way that would work. Absolute crazy talk.

What about a layered approach? If you have several layers of low pressure laminar flow within the one umbrella, the rain drop will decrease it's momentum while passing through each layer.

The laminar flow of the water umbrella can be improved I think. Maybe a circular plate instead of a square plate? And maybe a 3d printed inversed cone part to split the water more evenly, instead of just letting water splash into the plate directly. I mean, the momentum problem will still occur I guess but it could be a much more successful laminar flow.

Before you mentioned momentum, I was thinking that the system would work better if you could initially deflect the water at a steepish downward slant. Obviously this decreases the shield radius of your water brolly (wally?), but… would it do better at absorbing and deflecting the energy of vertically falling drops? Even if it would, how do you make a (parabolic?) deflector with the optimal shape to create even laminar flow? Absolutely no idea!

[@ErickTavianRefundini]

@@Just_a_Piano_ I know that we can take the salt out of the water, there are plenty of ways you can do that, but do you know that drinking water with absolutely no salt causes the same dehydration effects as drinking salty water? Because your cells always try to keep the same amount of minerals inside them, I order to keep them alive. This is called homeostasis. But when you drink water with absolutely no minerals, they lose the minerals inside them to balance the quantity of salt inside and out of them. Guess what: your cell becomes dehydrated. The same happens when you drink salty water, your cells lose water in order to increase the concentration of minerals inside them. Research shows that for every bottle of salty water you drink, 2 bottles of pure water are necessary for you to keep hydrated. In conclusion, why not save the clean water we already have, instead of wasting money just to clean the water we got dirty?

"Who cares about the people around me, I'm dry..." Finally some science I understand.

[@jamesbutterbur42]

"So I'm not getting wet right now" he says, with around 20 drops of water on his shirt 🤣🤣

I appreciate this engineer more than the original air (kickstarter) dreamer. That was just pure hot air, packaging an imagination he couldn't back up with real science.

[@merrybonezz-hk8rf]

bro just made an irl downpour glider

[@Archphoenix1]

what next? an ice umbrella? liquid nitrogen powered anti rain device sounds dangerous and funny!

[@sv4647]

Lava umbrella

[@jort93z]

Actually, this could work. But dry ice would be better than water-ice. If you shoot liquid co2 through a small nozzle, it will form dry ice. If you have a big CO2 tank with a dip tube(so you get the liquid from the bottom instead of the gas) and an insulated shaft with a few holes at the top, it might just work.

A magnetic field umbrella or if you want to improve your wind and water umbrella, how about making it so that it detects each drop of rain and shots an aimed water droplet or puff of air to the falling water to deflect them. This way it's more power and water efficient. Make it so the umbrella has a water collecting mechanism so it can continuously fire water droplets. Like, what if there's a small parabolic camera and a computer contraption near the tip that act as both water collection and rain drop detector? In fine weather, you can use it as a sun shield by unfolding its solar panels to charge the umbrella. These solar panels are not meant to be used on rain because they'll have to be thin and automatically retractable so the handle of the umbrella stays manageable and light. It has to be retractable to around 10-12 inches to it can be stored easily and has a built in powerful flashlight on the opposite end of the water collecting contraption.

Damn

[@bonkgameing]

This would be insanely funny except it would be very difficult to do, as this shit is not only bulky, but water just so happens to be clear

[@JUSTIC3FOR4LL]

Alright chill out Iron man

[@martiddy]

A force field umbrella

[@user-oj1jk5nc2j]

It's gonna break down so soon..also water droplets arent magnetic so I think u meant something else and not magnetic field? Just saying it's financially unviable and so is the sustainability.

I’m gonna start a kickstarter for my cotton candy umbrella

[@solsol9515]

Now make a sunshade out of sun

Sun - the perfect black body

[@upgradeplans777]

This video gave me a really good umbrella idea, and since you mentioned umbrella suggestions: What about a fabric-umbrella, polyester perhaps?

[@hassassinator8858]

It can never be done.

[@victorro8760]

If such a thing could be made then you could possibly make a jacket out of it as well but lets keep these ideas to our science fiction writing.

[@fischmann1746]

Yeah, fabric has way more mass. So the stick should shoot that out instead.

[@_BangDroid_]

Some kind of system to pump fabric fibers and blast them out in an umbrella shape. Should work.

[@ceadvin3767]

You're a madman!

[@matmariano1753]

I think electic umbrella would be a great experiment in the future✨

[@dhanushvarthiboina]

The taller guy beside you with an actual umbrella 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♂️

[@sanahaskuranage8071]

I jumped off a roof once with an umbrella thinking that I would glide down. It was around 5 pm. I hesitated for a while but when I heard my mom come home I had no choice but to jump down. I hit my ass on the floor so hard! I still crawled to my room cause I didn’t want my mom to find out I was on the roof or I jumped off the roof. Looking back it’s funny as hell.

[@MrE_]

I've done something similar for the same reason, except I was in a tree and I didn't make it very far after the air got beat out of me. I can't remember if it was the fall or my mother that beat the air out of me

[@ianmartinesq]

This didn’t work because you didn’t try it using a water umbrella.

[@DragonOfTheMortalKombat]

IF I tried that on My rooftop, I would've been one with the nature a long time ago.

[@pieTone]

Good thing that was a house's rooftop

[@_NaikChetan]

​@@ianmartinesq😂 lol

[@at_]

Hear me out, what if you made a solid umbrella, like an umbrella made out of some sort of solid material that stops the water. That could maybe work.

[@hca-hindiclassinassamese8021]

your friend will gonna beat you while he is with you under that umbrella 😂

[@katty8157]

Our Ancestors: We will have flying cars and flying houses in the Future! Us: Nah, we will have water umbrellas 💀

I can't stop laughing whenever Joana is involved. 😄
