Bonsai Breathing Backpack
In a dark timeline of the future, air pollution is rampant and biodiversity loss is at a critical level. I have a concept for a personal oxygen device that creates a symbiotic relationship between a human and a single tree. The Human and the Tree exchange Carbon Dioxide for Oxygen to keep both organisms alive. The tree is worn in a clear container to enable photosynthesis, with a tube running from the encasement on the back to a gas mask on the human’s face. LED lights will placed in the encasement to create a sci-fi effect. Additional LEDs can be located on the encasement that demonstrate the on-board computer is tracking oxygen and CO2 levels in real time.

All your ideas are fun but I agree the first one is MORE fun than the rest. Prop backpacks make great costumes. Consider building it on/with a preexisting backpack, so you’ll know it will be comfortable and easy to wear, and it will save you time making your own straps. Excited to see a more detailed sketch.
