Lightweight cot doubles as backpack

July 27, 2006 Birmingham Design has developed an innovative cot that weighs less than 10 lbs and doubles as a normal backpack with 5000 cubic inches of storage - enough for a 10 day trip. The cot portion is 74”x21”x17” (1.9m x 53 cm x 43cm) and 16cm above ground at its highest point and 10cm at the lowest - just enough to suspend a person in some degree of comfort. Being easily carried and filled with anything else you might need, Fotias pack ‘n sleep is highly adaptable for a multitude of purposes and can be used as a back pack, day traveler, as part of the gear for a car or as a spare bed when unexpected guests decide to stay the night. As it sets up inside three minutes, it has great potential for backpackers wishing to wait comfortably in airports, bus stations, indeed, anywhere, but its most likely use though, is for someone who wishes to camp or backpack without sacrificing their sleeping comfort.
