Starsuit
Programmable fabric for Earth and space
What does it take to live in space?
Unlike traditional bladder suits that contain pressurized air, Starsuit uses anatomy-aware printed lattice structures to apply mechanical counterpressure (MCP) directly to vacuum-exposed skin. Our spacesuits are lightweight, flexible, and can fit any human body.
How it works:
Unlike traditional bladder suits that contain pressurized air, Starsuit uses anatomy-aware printed lattice structures to apply mechanical counterpressure (MCP) directly to vacuum-exposed skin. Our spacesuits are lightweight, flexible, and can fit any human body.
How it's made:
Our manufacturing process begins with high-resolution 3D scanning to capture precise anatomical data. This digital model drives our lattice generation algorithms, which optimize chainmail patterns for both medical and spacesuit counterpressure requirements.
- Surface-following chainmail architecture
- Custom lattice geometries for targeted pressure application
- Medical-grade biocompatible materials
- 3D-printed to individual astronaut specifications
