Patent attributes
A modular umbrella system, comprises one or more shading elements and a support assembly, coupled to the one or more shading elements, to provide support for the one or more shading elements. The modular umbrella system further comprises a base assembly, coupled to the support assembly, to provide contact with a surface. The base assembly comprises one or more microphones to capture audio commands, one or more processors, one or more memory modules and one or more communication transceivers. Computer-readable instructions stored in the one or more memory modules are executed by a processor to convert the captured audio commands into audio files and communicate the captured audio commands to an external computing device utilizing the one or more communication transceivers. The computer-readable instructions are part of an artificial intelligence application programming interface that communicates with an external artificial intelligence computing device to process the communicated audio file.
