| metadata.dc.description.other-abstract: | Our backpacks are often on our backs, and when we need to access items, we often take them off and put them on our chest to access them. This paper discusses the practical possibilities of high-elasticity straps for backpacks to reduce the stress on the user. Non-traditional backpacks would allow the curious explorer to access items faster while traveling or hiking, and if this approach is successful, it could be adapted to the majority of backpacks on the market and to a wider range of people. This article explores the possibilities of a range of non-traditional backpacks that could provide a faster and more comfortable experience for people on the go. In the wake of the Covid 19, Thailand has seen a gradual influx of travelers and backpackers. The research methodology for this paper is to survey this target group to identify the main problems of backpacking and various secondary problems; then, compare and contrast several different samples of backpacks, as well as refer to the literature on backpacking, and incorporate these answers to design a new backpack. This paper examines and designs a range of backpacks designed to make it easier for the user to access their belongings, exploring their possibilities and the problems they will encounter. For example, the elasticated shoulder straps cannot be used permanently, and there is a problem of swaying when the backpack is cut in two. Further research will be needed to practise and improve these designs in the future |
