Hauling a heavy backpack can feel like carrying the weight of the world—literally. But what if your bag carried itself a little? Scientists in China have developed a game-changing prototype that uses electromagnetic dampening and smart algorithms to ease the load. By nearly eliminating vertical inertia, this innovative backpack lets you take on tough terrain or long hikes with significantly less effort. Science just gave backpackers everywhere a reason to celebrate.
