Wet weather can deter someone in a wheelchair from venturing outdoors. This project considers the shape and function of an umbrella with a wheelchair. Currently, rain covers for are bulky, heavy, non retractable, and lack aesthetic values. These issues have evoked the idea to develop a retractable, lightweight and functional design. Our mission is to confront the fear and anxiety attributed to adaptation with changing weather. This product aims to be readily available and easily deployed.
