A system and a method for a deployable awning that detects impending storms or other weather events and automatically deploys from a structure to extend out and cover vehicles to protect them from damage due to the storm or other weather event. In one embodiment, a method includes determining that an activating event has occurred. The activating event includes a storm or other weather event. Upon determining that the activating event has occurred, the method includes automatically deploying an awning from a stored configuration inside an awning housing to a deployed configuration such that the awning covers a coverage area of a ground surface adjacent to a location where the awning housing is mounted.

Deployable awning for protection from storm damage

A roof protecting system for protecting the roof of a building from hail damage. The roof protecting system includes a roof covering structure adapted to cover a portion of the roof and capable of holding a non-Newtonian dilatant fluid; a deployment system to dispose the roof covering structure onto the roof; and a delivery system for delivering the non-Newtonian dilatant fluid to the roof covering structure.

System with non-newtonian dilatent fluid to stop hail damage

A system includes a vehicle system including one or more sensors that to monitor one or more properties related to an operation of a vehicle. The system also includes a processor that receives expected vehicle usage information from an applicant, a database, publicly available sources, or the like and receive a set of data including the one or more properties from the vehicle system. The set of data is associated with the expected vehicle usage information. The processor may then determine a premium base rate based at least in part on the set of data and a risk associated with the applicant and determine a vehicle rate based at least in part on the set of data and a risk associated with the vehicle. The processor may then display a visualization including the premium base rate and the vehicle rate on a display.

System with non-Newtonian dilatent fluid to stop hail damage

Systems and methods for mitigating damage caused by hail storms to self-driving motor-vehicles. When a self-driving motor vehicle determines or learns that a hail storm or other severe weather event may be approaching, it may seek cover under a protective structure or some other location where it might not be as exposed to the severe weather event. Depending upon the availability of suitable shelters, the self-driving motor vehicle might, for example, obtain a list of such possible shelters and apply certain factors to develop a priority list as to which shelters to seek. The self-driving motor vehicle may then drive itself to the location and remain there at least for the duration of the hail storm or other event. In some cases, the self-driving motor vehicle may evaluate the adequacy of the protective structure or other location, and may decide to seek a better protective structure or location.

Systems and methods for automatic sheltering in storms

Systems and methods container for the protection of exterior surfaces of buildings and other outdoor structures are disclosed. The proposed systems are configured to offer a mesh-based covering that can be installed on surfaces such as roofs to safeguard the exterior surface from damage caused by hailstorms or other debris. The mesh covering can be colored to match the coloring of the roof surface and/or may be substantially transparent or comprise a material thin enough to remain imperceptible when viewed from a distance. Consumers can order the mesh material to match the appearance type of their homes. The mesh covering can be spaced apart from the roof surface to ensure the impact of hail does not affect the roof.
