Up to 200 thousand people get injured in the American wilderness every year, and it can be difficult to get aid and rescue to those trapped in isolated places. A new award-winning design could help search and rescue missions go smoother and quicker. The Portable Rescue Backpack is a back-mounted stretcher packed with supplies, allowing rescuers to walk to the victim, and carry them out. It won the Red Dot Design Award for 2015.
