OGAM is an innovative aquaponics module designed for future zero-gravity space stations, addressing the challenge of daily astronaut nutrition in space. Current meals, pre-cooked and imported from Earth, pose logistical challenges. Aquaponics appears to be...
In recent years, climate change has started impacting agriculture. In my home country, Sri Lanka, even though the irrigation system of the dry zone has been built from ancient times to collect water during the...
In this low-tech system, adjustable bungee panels are integrated in hiking pants to assist people with lower limb muscle weakness in rising up motions during nature excursions. The system is inspired by a spacesuit used...
The well-being of astronauts in space significantly impacts their performance, making hygiene a crucial aspect. Venus, a refillable shampoo bottle designed for zero-gravity environments, addresses this need. Provided with a mountable brush for scalp massage,...
Introducing the inflatable research lab concept, an innovative extension of NASA’s Space Exploration Vehicle (SEV). This project blends advanced technology with forward-thinking design, offering a modular platform for scientific exploration beyond Earth’s atmosphere. At the...
The device monitors the heart rate of the user and administers Narcan automatically in the event of a fentanyl overdose. It can be used to save the lives of homeless drug addicts who use illegal...
Dining in space is a project where I explore body posture and positioning during a social dining situation in microgravity. Looking into how a retaining system for the body could ease this experience. The main...
At the ISS the sun rises and sets 16 times within a human day. To maintain the body’s circadian rhythm in a 24-hour day cycle, the lights at the station change intensity and temperature during...
NECTAR, a drone concept, was developed to efficiently explore Mars by using swarm intelligence. The drones are inspired by the flight mechanics of bees and use the principles of biomimicry. The UAVs are equipped with...
The SEV – Space Exploration Vehicle is a concept for a modular design structure of a Mars and lunar vehicle. The flexibility of the elements allows a more open mission architecture in the upcoming Artemis...
