The water catcher
This is a variation of the umbrella, which as well as keeping the person underneath dry, it also serves another valuable service by collecting and filtering the rain water too.
As you can see from the design there is a dip in the centre of the canopy where the water is directed, the material is specially made from compostable polylactic acid plastic blends, it is this that drives the water into the hollow rod, which has a carbon filter within.
So as the rain water washes over the canopy and down the rod, it is filter through the carbon. All that is required now is any plastic drinking bottle which can be fixed onto the handle and removed when full. It may not be quick, but it is better than wasting the rain water.
