Inclusive Innovation & Adaptive Sciences for Safety Enhancement and Risk Reduction for Critical Space Exploration -Towards a More Inclusive Space Future Through the Parastronaut Programme
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This paper contends that inclusive innovation and the integration of additional sensorial input (e.g.tactile and sonic alarm) could help enhance safety and mitigate risks for astronauts in extreme environments in orbit. Currently, instead of utilising all available human senses, path-dependent technological developments in technology-heavy sectors risk over-relying on visual cues in its innovative process. Designed to support ESA parastronaut programme, this paper argues that simultaneous experiments with on-orbit and simulated segments to examine how high-fidelity multisensorial simulations could help advance more inclusive developments in critical operations in Outer Space.
