Watching TV online while singing in the rain

Watching TV online while singing in the rain will soon be possible thanks to scientists at Tokyo's Keio University who are working on a prototype umbrella that connects to the web via a wireless connection, and then projects images from the internet onto the underside of the canopy.

Known as Pileus, the umbrella allows you to watch videos from online video sites as you walk.
