In-Suit Waste Management Technologies
Project Description
There is no acceptable urine or fecal containment waste management system for long duration missions for use by crew members confined to pressurized space suits available. Omni's proposed solution is to integrate its new patent pending urine collection and containment system technology, ProRen FLO (Prosthetic Renal Flow System), combined with Omni fecal collection and containment options into a In-Suit waste management System Garment.
