Abstract: A sun protection apparatus includes a shading device, including an upper bar, a lower bar and a screen disposed between the upper and lower bars. The apparatus also includes a motorized drive device, designed to deploy and fold away the screen, including a first electromechanical actuator, configured to move the upper bar, a second electromechanical actuator, configured to move the lower bar, and a control unit, configured to control the first and second actuators. The control unit controls the first actuator so as to move the upper bar then the second actuator so as to move the lower bar depending on the position and/or movement of the upper bar, or vice versa.
