Traditional camera bags, which utilizes Velcro to create removable and adjustable padded sections, sounds quite practical in theory but  not that much in real use. That’s why we need some innovative ideas such as the user-configurable gear protection system.

As a result, it can not only help the users to organize their items more freely and conveniently, but also compatible with almost any existing bags.

Seemingly common things may sometimes perform really magic, and Mobee’s Magic Numpad is just a good example of that.
