Mobility Exo Suit

Last crawled date: 1 year, 11 months ago

The basis of design was made from the simple premise that ultimate mobility needed to be kept. In space, gravity is not the same as it is on earth and as the rules explained there are times where gravity can be 0 and times where it can have a force (depends on the planet or moon). So this exo suit was designed in order for it to aid the astronaut in whatever gravitational strength needed. In zero gravity the suit works by shooting out compressed air in its 8 locations in order to move the individual where he/she needs to be. Accompanied by a gyroscope and on board computer it will automatically push them in the direction a person tells it to go by voice command or controls. But if the individual needs to be more precise such as during medical procedures or cooking, the bottom of their feet are decked out in a thin sheet of metal that has holes at the bottom where a vacuum would be created (as seen with the tubs feeding into it from the tank/pump) in order to keep their feet planted. With this system the person wouldn't even feel as if there is zero gravity and be able to function as if there was gravity on the individual. A bonus to this system as well is that their thighs are connected to motors that allow them to save some energy when walking. The exo suit created by Samsung is an excellent example of this system working wonders by saving up 20% of a person’s energy while walking. This is very important since if a colony were started on mars the beginning stages would probably require a lot of manpower. When gravity is in effect such on earth or mars, traversing is easy in this suit as it does not hinder the wearer and even helps him/her. Since the person can no longer fall/jump between floors a simple pulley elevator is available. (Simple idea seen in photos). This exo suit has clips on it where it can attach to the pulley and be taken up/down without any dangers. Since the pulley elevator is so sleek it does not get in the way of a small space and can also be used to transport heavy packages up or down floors.

In the end the Mobility Exo suit helps in all fields of gravity. It helps the user conserve energy. It allows the user to move in zero gravity as if they were back on earth which is essential as less time would be needed for the astronaut to adapt to its new surroundings as it would be just like earth. Meaning he/she can perform their actions like normal. They can also practice on earth before going on their mission. This suit does not hinder their movement or get in the way either. And a simple pulley elevator is used during normal gravity to go up/down rooms.
