In homage to the Voyager 1 spacecraft and its infamous photograph of Earth where our planet is a ‘pale blue dot’, this new iKamper tent is designed for anyone looking to explore this little spinning rock.

The company that turned the industry on its head with the crowd funded Skycamp tent is adding their unique ideas to this classic rooftop tent style. The Blue Dot Voyager will be available as the Solo, with a single person capacity; or the Duo, fitting two people.

Uniqueness doesn’t stop there. iKamper will also be offering both of these tents in either an unassembled “Build it Yourself” style, which will save folks several hundred dollars with a few hours of work and fully assembled.

In homage to the Voyager 1 spacecraft and its infamous photograph of Earth where our planet is a ‘pale blue dot’, this new iKamper tent is designed for anyone looking to explore this little spinning rock.

The BDV features an exoshell design, which reinforces the fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) hard shells. This system is load bearing, allowing for gear or integrated solar panels to be easily mounted. Accessories and gear can be mounted on along the base or the top of the tent via the T-track, allowing the tent itself to act a versatile roofrack and opening the ability for permanent or temporary gear fitment.

A quick flip of two latches and the tent opens, with the gas struts doing the work for you. The struts will lift the top along with 100lbs of your favorite gear mounted on top (think surfboards, bikes, etc). Three giant window/doors immediately appear. Attach the ladder to the tent under of any of those three and climb up into the 55” tall space.

Once you are inside, everything is about comfort. The tent ships with a high-density polyfoam mattress but can be replaced with one of iKamper’s inflatable options. The large windows will provide plenty of cross- breeze for warm nights, but the rainfly and polycotton wall material will keep the rain and cold at bay if you are out in rougher weather.

When it’s time to move camp, climb out, collapse the ladder and pull the tent closed. Throw the latches closed and hit the road. Simple, easy and quick.

iKamper designs, engineers and assembles their tents in their own state-of-the-art factory in South Korea.
