Intelligent light chasing sun umbrella

Short Description:

Nowadays, transportation is developed, and tourism has become people's favorite project. With the development of tourism, people generally like to go to the beach and other areas for outdoor activities. Ordinary parasols can only block part of the sunlight due to changes in the angle of the sun. For this reason, we have made an intelligent chasing umbrella. The main structure of our work-the intelligent chasing umbrella is to use an Arduino device and a light sensor to carry out intelligent chasing. The body part of the work adopts simple mechanical principles to design. As the sun moves slowly over time, the angle of sunlight also changes. When the sun receiver on our umbrella senses a change in the angle of the sun, it will change accordingly. A rotatable mechanism is installed on our device, which can make our follow-up umbrella move 180 degrees, basically can solve any angle of shading. On the umbrella handle, we use an umbrella handle clip.When using it, we only need to clip the tracking device, so that any umbrella can achieve the effect of intelligent tracking. The intelligent chasing umbrella has strong practicability, wide application range and great convenience. First of all, it is more practical than ordinary umbrellas. The light-following system can isolate most of the sunlight and achieve a more comfortable and coolenvironment, and all umbrellas are suitable for this equipment. Secondly, this umbrella can be widely used in daily life, suitable for outdoor cafes or holiday places in restaurants. The novel design of the sun umbrella attracts customers to the store, increases the flow of customers and increases the turnover. In addition, it has a light body and the umbrella can be disassembled, which is more convenient to carry than ordinary sunshade.

As the sun moves slowly over time, the angle of sunlight also changes. When the sun receiver on our umbrella senses a change in the angle of the sun, it will change accordingly. A rotatable mechanism is installed on our device, which can make our follow-up umbrella move 180 degrees, basically can solve any angle of shading. On the umbrella handle, we use an umbrella handle clip.When using it, we only need to clip the tracking device, so that any umbrella can achieve the effect of intelligent tracking.Because in the morning, noon, and evening, the value of the sun's rays will also change. So we collected and researched the morning, noon, and evening data, and got the following snapshot. The two photoresistors, according to the difference of the data collected by the photoresistor, change the angle of the umbrella. On the head of the follower umbrella, we installed two photoresistors, so that we are in addition to the two photoresistors, the device needs to be horizontally placed in the middle of the two photoresistors. The photoresistors are distributed up and down. When the light data is deviated, the follower umbrella will move to and from the data-intensive place, because the data on both sides is close to balance. When the difference between the two sides is less than 20, the follower umbrella will automatically stop. This also avoids that the light-following umbrella keeps moving and wastes power due to the slight deviation of the sunlight.Because in the morning, noon, and evening, the value of the sun's rays will also change.

The work has great plasticity. It can also add some entertainment accessories such as charging, wifi, fans and other equipment to enhance its entertainment comfort and make people more comfortable under the umbrella. Secondly, a cooling system can also be added. When the temperature inside the umbrella is greater than 26 degrees, water is automatically sprayed to reduce the temperature, avoiding people from heat stroke, and allowing people to enjoy outdoor sports more comfortably. Then, the intelligent umbrella is combined with AI artificial intelligence to realize the voice report of the temperature at that time, and the voice control of its accessories and facilities to achieve full intelligence. The first feature is intelligence, which can automatically control the stepper motor to drive the screw to adjust the up and down movement, and use the servo to control the left and right rotation of the shade umbrella, which makes the shade range more extensive. The second feature is to save the cost of hiring, no longer need to hire personnel to adjust the angle of the umbrella at any time, which is both labor-saving and labor-saving. The third feature is the auto-sensing function. Two light-sensitive resistors are installed on the surface of the umbrella. Through the light-sensitive resistors, the change of light intensity can be detected, and the shading angle can be adjusted according to the change. The fourth feature is the wide range of application, any umbrella can be adapted to this device, and there is no big difference in effect.
