Backpacks are evolving quickly. They used to be accessories meant simply to carry things around. Then they became fashion statements designed to be eye-catchers. Now, innovators have begun using them to do everything from charge devices, double as workout equipment, and thwart pickpockets. Here’s a list of some of the coolest backpacks out there, both concept and launched, that offer functionality above and beyond what you’d expect.
Bobby
Some of us have tried to sow secret pockets into our backpacks to sneak contraband into school (not that we’re condoning such behavior…). High-tech backpack Bobby comes with hidden compartments and zipper closures out of the box. Those are just a couple of the many features that position Bobby as an anti-theft backpack.
In addition to the inconspicuous compartments, the cut-proof material it’s made of makes it even tougher to make away with its contents. Apart from the safety features, the bag also boasts an external USB charger, an illuminant strip to make night-time bike rides safe, and a weight balance that takes about 20 percent of weight off the wearer’s shoulders.
Olaf Urban
The Olaf is not high-tech in the way we’ve come to expect from gadget-heavy design approaches. Instead, it focuses on making commuting with the backpack simpler, which will come in handy for users planning on leveraging its entire 220-pound weight capacity. To make lugging that weight around less taxing, Olaf’s Urban line can morph into a kick scooter, trolley, or skateboard. A patented folding mechanism allows for smooth transitions between each mode. The backpack itself has an ergonomic design that accommodates the wheels which sit in a concealed wheel cover.
MSI VR Backpack
VR backpacks aren’t your conventional carry-ons made for travel or city jaunts. Their main focus is VR gameplay, in which mobility is often limited by the need to be within the range of cables connected to a PC.
So instead of being connected to a stationary computer, such backpacks allow gamers to carry their PC along on their back during VR gaming. The MSI VR holds a computer powered by an Intel Core i7 processor along with an NVidia GTX 1070 graphics card. The built in battery can be hot-swapped and each battery can support an hour and a half of VR gaming.
Atlexa Workout Backpack
Working out on the move can be tricky. What might make it easier is if your backpack doubles up as a personalized workout companion—which is exactly what Atlexa’s new backpack tries to do. The modular accessory is fitted with a series of cables which allow for resistance training targeting specific muscle groups.
It also does its job as “just a backpack” pretty well, offering a waterproof exterior, an ergonomic design, and modular compartments. The company had initiated a Kickstarter campaign last month, but was forced to cancel it due to legal issues with another company of the same name. They expect to be back on their crowdfunding run early next year.
AMPL Smart Bag
AMPL’s “world’s smartest backpack” houses an 18.5 watt-hour lithium polymer battery connected to seven USB ports; one port for each pocket. If that isn’t enough, users can layer on additional battery packs which add between 10 and 14 hours of battery life. But what makes this backpack truly “smart” is the accompanying mobile app.
The app can be used to monitor the charging status of all connected devices as well as set the charging priority. Also on board is a suite of sensors that monitor internal temperature and drop force. AMPL Lab’s backpack is priced $249 and can be reserved on the website.

I am also surprised by the improvement in backpacks, I think that making space for chargers is the greatest convenience.
Mac and cheese is one of my favorite comfort foods, and this recipe is no exception.
a bag of many useful and fashionable styles, I now carry this bag almost everywhere, so you should own it a way to stand miscellaneous things when you want to go out
Your backpack has many gadgets.
Thanks , I have just beeen searching for info approximately
this topic for a longg time and yours is the best I
have found out so far. However, what about the bottom line?
Are you sure about the source?
Personally, I like something that has enough space for 4-5 main things and some pockets. The design on the inside is not that big of a deal to me, but I want the overall design to be smaller than bulkier.
I think it’s awesome wrap up! All of these are beneficial in one way or another. The prices are not bad either, especially if you live out of a bag on a normal basis.
Most of these backpacks can get the job done if you need them to. Today, there is so much stuff packed into a backpack that sometimes it seems to be overkill and you are then carrying around half your stuff in a huge bag that is a pain to carry around.
This is a pretty good post showing you which of the backpacks are available to you and based on what you need, you can make a good decision from that info!
The Olaf Urban is a sweet deal when you are not traveling by car every day. If you have to get around, most people would prefer a scooter or skateboard over walking.
Awesome wrap up! All of these are beneficial in one way or another. The prices are not bad either, especially if you live out of a bag on a normal basis.
I have always been a backpack person. I am so jacked up that they are coming with more technology built into them. Thanks for the post and the insights on a few others I never heard of.
The one issue that I always had with backpacks was the weight on the shoulders. I could never figure out how one would make it more balanced, or even reduce the weight without emptying the bag, but the Bobby bag looks to have done just that. I am interested!
Having a backpack that is function AND theft proof has some major bonuses built in and is one that just makes sense when you are dealing with the big city life!
I have been in a situation where my backpack was cut off my back. I would do just about anything to get that backpack returned to me today.
Hmm, some of these are quite useful. Can you tell which backpack is going to get the most use for the average backpack user out there?
