ExoBakPak
2016 Concept backpack with top and bottom covers would be made out of silicone. They stand retracted to access the pockets but they stretch and are fixed to metal tabs when closing the backpack. This feature eliminates need for zippers and other components that make the design more complicated to manufacture and to disassemble for end of life. The main structure uses an organic, open exoskeleton that contains a removable inner bag, which can be used separately to reduce weight and volume. This project was created in Fusion 360 and featured at Autodesk University 2016. It is an example of using CAD such as Fusion 360 and T-Splines to create complex organic shapes.
