An intelligent shading umbrella comprises a base assembly, an umbrella support assembly coupled to a base assembly, a first memory, a first processor coupled to the first memory, and a computing device, wherein the computing device has a non-volatile memory having computer-readable instructions stored thereon, a second memory, and a second processor. A first processor communicates commands and/or signals to the umbrella support assembly to cause movement of the umbrella support assembly. A second processor, of the computing device, is enclosed within the intelligent shading object fetches computer-readable instructions from the non-volatile memory, loads the computer-readable instructions from the non-volatile memory into the second memory, and executes the computer-readable instructions to communicate with external computing devices and/or to generate commands and/or signals to the first processor to request movements of the umbrella shading assembly.

A hands-free umbrella device includes a vest having a waist strap and a pair of shoulder straps. The vest is constructed from a lightweight material having high visibility markings along a portion or the entire body. An umbrella assembly is removably connected to the vest, and includes a central pole, a control mechanism, a rib assembly and a canopy. A plurality of retention members is disposed along the back portion of the vest for receiving an elongated shaft that is connected to the umbrella assembly. The elongated shaft includes a user adjustable shape, and the retention members are arranged to position the umbrella assembly over the left or right shoulder of a wearer. The umbrella assembly is telescopically engaged to the elongated shaft and a height of the umbrella canopy is adjustable.
