Modular

Most modular phones are all about the swappable hardware or their repairability. But Brax's upcoming model takes a slightly different approach: it's going for maximum privacy.

More and more, we're seeing camper canopies that incorporate livable interiors alongside exterior living spaces. The new Unbounder X does just that in a unique way, using a slide-out to create a cozy hard-walled bedroom pod, accessed from outside.

The Zero is as unattractive a power bank as you'll ever find. There's a good reason for that, though: you can take it apart, swap out weak cells for fresh ones when the time comes, and keep using it for way longer than any other power bank will last.

Car tires are made to take a lot of abuse for a long time, so breaking them down for recycling has always been quite a challenge. Spanish scientists are developing a solution to that problem, with a modular tire that has a removable silicone tread.

The Campanero trailer blends safari-style tent luxury with simple setup and the ability to grow with your family. The modular platform provides comfortable shelter for up to six people while remaining light enough to tow with a small electric car.

ANY Mobility lets you customize its LUV1 e-moto in more ways than a Subway sandwich – pick a base, pile on the extras, and keep clicking until you've created something that looks suspiciously unlike the bike you started with.

The wheel-less Freedom Camper pod has proven an interesting recent development at the entry-level end of the RV market. Now Freedom is preparing to go all-out family camping. Its latest design sees a rooftop tent climb aboard a forthcoming cubic pod.

The Ebicos Happy Dreamer extends a small van's volume to create a roomier RV. The sleeper pod bursts out of the van's tailgate at camp to create an instant bedroom. Buyers can use it on its own or with the available slide-out kitchen.

While gimbal-stabilized video cameras are great for smoothing out the shakes, sometimes it's nice to have a tiny wearable camera, too. Well, Hohem's just-announced Eyepic will soon let you have both in one modular device.

The new Cubivan Camping System is a very different style of camper-in-a-box module. It expands out the van and down to the ground to create a full kitchen and bathroom. Add the hard-walled origami roof, and you make a full camper out of a tiny van.

I want the camper van ... but without tying myself to one van. That's essentially what Hunker sells with its new slide-in camper box. An all-in-one camper floor plan on roller skates, the Hunker Pod turns an empty Ram van into an inviting camper van.

I'm always happy to discover outdoor gear that's designed to take up less room and allow you to pack light. This trekking pole falls squarely in that category, and does a lot more than you'd expect at first glance.
