  • Patent number: 11882887
    Abstract: The disclosure is the only product of its kind that provides users with a nonrestrictive yet effective body shapewear that lifts the breast and buttock, and smooths curves for a flattering look. The disclosure is uniquely designed with a skin friendly material that minimizes rashes or irritation during long term wear and is strategically crafted with a buttock lift connecting strap that depicts a fuller, rounder appearance of the buttocks to achieve an hourglass figure. The disclosure includes an elastic torso comprising a right and a left reinforced side panels, a front reinforced panel, a front and a back panel and a left and a right straps; a right and a left reinforced buttocks panels adjacent the back panel; a sliding crotch panel adjoining the front and the back panels, wherein the sliding crotch panel allows bowel and urinary access and spans a crotch area there between.

  • Publication number: 20210061500
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a spacesuit including a liquid cooling ventilation garment, a soft exoskeleton, at least one biometric sensor, and an electronic controller in electronic communication with the liquid cooling ventilation garment, the soft exoskeleton, and the at least one biometric sensor. The electronic controller is configured to operate the soft exoskeleton based on electromyography data of the at least one biometric sensor to produce a desired change in orientation of the soft exoskeleton and corresponding user. The electronic controller is further configured to operate the liquid cooling ventilation garment based on temperature data of the at least one biometric sensor to maintain a user temperature within a predetermined user temperature range. In certain embodiments, the liquid cooling ventilation garment is in thermal communication with the soft exoskeleton and used for thermal management thereof. Such configurations reduce the physical and cognitive loading of the astronaut.
