Our Touch-Free Tech Brings Space Suits to Life at Kennedy Space Center

We've all been to museums where "Do Not Touch" signs keep us at arm's length from fascinating exhibits. At Exhibitry, we turn that idea on its head with our TouchFree technology. Now, you can fully engage with priceless artifacts in an immersive manner, without ever laying a finger on them.

TouchFree Magic

Our TouchFree 3D technology lets you interact with the exhibit with just a wave of your hand. A virtual hand appears on the transparent display, allowing you to click buttons, spin 3D objects, and even try on a virtual space glove. You can flex the virtual fingers and play a zero-gravity game catching floating objects, all without physically touching the exhibit.

Design with a View

We created an enclosure that offers maximum visibility. Four transparent sides and a rotating turntable let you see every detail of the Boeing spacesuit from all angles. Soft, adjustable lighting highlights the craftsmanship and intricate details of the suit, making it a visual treat.

The Adam Savage Connection

To ensure authenticity, we partnered with Adam Savage, the legendary maker and host of Mythbusters. Adam meticulously crafted the spacesuit replica in his California workshop. Meanwhile, our Houston team focused on designing the enclosure and integrating the interactive technology. The result? An immersive exhibit that blends education with entertainment.

Why It’s a Hit

Visitors are thrilled by the chance to explore the spacesuit in such an interactive way. The hands-free technology not only makes the exhibit more engaging but also preserves the artifact by minimizing physical contact. The feedback has been fantastic—people love interacting with a piece of space history in such a unique and dynamic manner.

Come Experience It!

The spacesuit exhibit at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is a must-see. Come by, wave your hand, and let the spacesuit's story unfold right before your eyes.
