Spacesuits are personalized spaceships that mimic all of the protections from the harsh environment of space and the basic resources that Earth and its atmosphere provide.
Spacesuit Engineers Amy Ross, Kristine Davis and Dustin Gohmert showcase the advanced features of the next generation spacesuits that will be worn by astronauts as they explore the Moon as part of the Artemis program.

Supernumerary Robotic Limbs for Next Generation Space Suit Technology - ICRA 2023
Jun 15, 2023
Quote:
This paper discusses the incorporation of a pair of Supernumerary Robotic Limbs (SuperLimbs) onto the next generation of NASA space suits. The wearable robots attached to the space suit assist an astronaut in performing Extra-Vehicular Activities (EVAs). The SuperLimbs grab handrails fixed to the outside of a space vehicle to securely hold the astronaut body. The astronaut can use both hands for performing an EVA task, rather than using one hand for securing the body or operating a tether. The SuperLimbs can also assist an astronaut in repositioning the body and stabilizing it during an EVA mission. A control algorithm based on Admittance Control is developed for a)virtually reducing the inertial load of the entire body so that an astronaut can reposition his/her body with reduced effort, and b) bracing the body stably despite reaction forces and disturbances acting on the astronaut during an EVA operation. A full-scale prototype of Space Suit SuperLimbs was constructed and tested. Results from the experimentation indicated that with the aid of SuperLimbs, metabolic loading during EVAs is reduced significantly.
