The paper analyzes the characteristics of the existing traditional umbrellas, and takes the basic needs of users as the starting point. From the aspects of “functionality” and “structural design”, the traditional umbrellas are optimized and improved. Under the premise of fully considering the cost, reliability and volume of the umbrella, the NodeMCU single-chip microcomputer is used as the control component, which adds night lighting and weather forecasting functions to the traditional umbrella. The umbrella handle of the umbrella was redesigned, and the A-shaped umbrella structure was designed. This smart umbrella enhances the safety and convenience of users, and the solution is practical, contributing to the optimization of traditional umbrellas.
