<br/><br/> This research tackled the logistical hurdles the variable weather conditions, particularly El<br/>Niņo and La Niņa seasons, affect outdoor events in the Philippines. To address these<br/>challenges comprehensively, the study focused on the development of a semi-automatic<br/><br/>integrated tent system. The tent system incorporates innovative features such as a semi-<br/>automatic remote-controlled setup, solar panels for energy generation, a rechargeable<br/><br/>Bluetooth sound system, and LED lighting. The objectives of the research encompass the<br/>design, fabrication, testing, and evaluation of the tent's functionality, durability,<br/>workability, aesthetics, cost-effectiveness, and safety. The scope of the study involves the<br/>creation of a vehicle-mounted tent with specific dimensions, ensuring adaptability to<br/>diverse weather conditions. The prototype produced covers an area of 3.5m2<br/><br/>, designed to<br/>fit the standard roof area of an SUV. The significance of this study lies in its contribution<br/>to enhancing safety, comfort, and adaptability during outdoor events, thereby ensuring<br/>successful event execution despite unpredictable weather patterns. The research concludes<br/>with the presentation of the prototype for the integrated tent system for outdoor activities,<br/>accompanied by a descriptive assessment rating it as "Very Good/Very Acceptable" and<br/>achieving a mean evaluation score of 4.48. The findings of this study offer valuable insights<br/>and practical solutions that can significantly enhance the execution of outdoor activities.<br/>By manipulating the evaluation results, people can effectively plan and execute outdoor<br/>events with greater efficiency, safety, and adaptability to variable weather conditions.<br/>Keywords: integrated tent system, car awning, vehicle-mounted tent, semi-automatic tent,<br/>solar powered, remote control
