Helios
Helios hi tech umbrella keeps a fixed shadow on the ground and produces clean energy.
Helios (Light Bearer) was born from the idea of 3 design students Marco Lipari, Andrea Neroni and Lancillotto Alesiani from their need to create a product that is not only useful to those who use it but also to those who buy it and in this case speaks of bathers and owner of the bathing concession.
It is a Hi-Tech umbrella designed to capture solar energy, through the photovoltaic fabric, to distribute it to the structure to which it is
connected thus using only clean energy for all services. it also allows users to always remain in the shade without the slightest movement,
because autonomously through photoresistors and reduced motors it is able to orient itself following the sunlight like a sunflower and thus projecting a
land always a fixed shadow.
