An accessory mounting system can be operable to mount an accessory to a device. The accessory mounting system can include an accessory mount and an accessory holder. The accessory mount can include a mount body having a first end, a second end, and an inner section disposed between the first and second ends. The accessory mount can further include a first device interface disposed at the first end and configured to interface with the device and a second device interface disposed at the second end and configured to interface with the device. The accessory mount has at least one mounting point disposed on the inner section of the mount body. The accessory holder can include an interface operable to selectively attach to and detach from the mounting point of the accessory mount. The accessory holder can receive and support an accessory.

Systems and methods for transitioning a portable weather canopy between at least two states are described, where a first state provides flexible shaft portions that can be worn on a user's body or wrapped about an object and a second state reversibly couples the flexible shaft portions to provide a rigid shaft to support the canopy. In an aspect, a collapsible, portable weather canopy includes, but is not limited to, a foldable canopy; and a collapsible shaft coupled to the foldable canopy.

The present disclosure relates to a responsive umbrella with a hands-free mechanism that allows a user to operate and hold the responsive umbrella without requiring the use of their hands. In some aspects, the hands-free mechanism may comprise a wearable strap or harness. In some embodiments, a responsive umbrella may be adjustable for the angle of extension from the hands-free mechanism, which may allow a user to adapt the responsive umbrella for different ambient conditions.

The present disclosure provides generally for an adjustable venue seating apparatus that may provide covering from ambient conditions. According to the present disclosure, an adjustable venue seating apparatus may allow a user to have flexibility for protection in a range of ambient conditions without having to change the type of covering device. In some aspects, an adjustable venue seating apparatus may be integrated temporarily or permanently into venue seating, such as a sports stadium or concert amphitheatre. In some embodiments, adjustable venue seating may need to be customized to the specifications of a venue, allowing for the enjoyment and safety of a user of the adjustable venue seating apparatus and surrounding attendees who may or may not have the adjustable venue seating apparatus on their seat.

An umbrella holder and stabilization system for hands-free holding of an umbrella includes a housing having a plurality of walls that, collectively, define an interior space, and a top wall defining an opening for receiving the handle of the umbrella into the interior space. The system includes a neck strap having opposed ends and a fastener coupling the ends so to form a loop. At least one clamp is coupled to the neck strap that is slidable along an extent of the neck strap and is operable to releasably capture the pole of the umbrella. A belt includes a strap having opposed ends that is selectively attachable about one of a user's chest or a user's waist. A connector strap may extend between the torso belt and neck strap. Thus, an umbrella is secured in the housing and held upright without use of a user's hands.
