Spacesuits and other protective
garments for extreme-environments
are expensive and time consuming
to design and test. Intuitive
Machines’ physics-based suit
modeling system provides a
state-of-the-art design tool to reduce
the time and expense of designing a
new extreme-environment suit.

• Accelerate/streamline the design of new extreme environment suits.
• Ensure the best possible fit for any garment.,
• Determine pinch-points, rub points, joint range of motion,
and other constraints.
• Eliminate the cost and time of designing & manufacturing high-fidelity, early prototypes.
• Assess dynamic suited or unsuited interactions with external elements.
THE EXTREME SUIT & ENVIRONMENT MODELING (ESEM) TOOL CAN BE USED TO:
