Ascension Trackers
are Out of This World!
The Department of Aeronautics
& Astronautics at MIT
in Boston use the Flock of
Birds and MotionStar to collect
motion data in a NASA Space
Suit. The sensors are mounted
on the suit to track the motion

while performing simulations
of tasks faced in space. These
tests evaluate the flexibility
of the space suit joints and
connections.
