Deployment Marks Latest Government Milestone Following Recent U.S. Air Force, Marine Corps, Navy, Army, and Air National Guard Projects Omni One Brings Full-Body Immersive Movement to NASA's Moon and Mars Mission Simulation, Supporting Next-Generation Astronaut Training and Research AUSTIN, Texas, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Virtuix Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: VTIX), a leading developer of AI-driven, full-body simulation systems, today announced that NASA has selected the Company's Omni One platform for use in its  Moon and Mars Exploration Analog (MMEA) mission, a year-long research program designed to help scientists better understand astronaut performance during upcoming deep-space missions. The NASA collaboration builds on Virtuix's accelerating expansion across government and defense markets, following recent sales and projects with the U.S. Air Force, Marine Corps, Navy, Army, and the Air National Guard. Virtuix's selection for the program demonstrates the growing adoption of the Company's immersive simulation technology across aerospace, defense, and research environments. MMEA places a crew of four volunteer participants inside a 650-square-foot habitat for one year, simulating every phase of a deep space mission, including transit to Mars, surface operations, and the return journey. During simulated extravehicular activities (EVA) on the planetary surface, crew members will use the Omni treadmill to physically walk, kneel, turn, and navigate virtual Martian terrain instead of remaining stationary. The immersive experience supports realistic training for activities such as equipment inspection and repair, rock sampling, emergency response, and mission replanning. "Our collaboration with NASA represents another important milestone in Virtuix's expansion across government and research applications," said Jan Goetgeluk, Founder and CEO of Virtuix. "By enabling participants to naturally walk and interact with virtual environments, Omni One creates a more realistic experience that can help researchers better understand how astronauts may perform during future missions. We are proud to collaborate with NASA on research that advances the future of human space exploration." Virtuix's AI-driven Omni One platform has expanded into defense, enterprise, education, and healthcare applications where natural movement enhances virtual training and simulation. The company's technology enables users to walk, run, crouch, kneel, and turn naturally within virtual environments while remaining safely contained within a compact footprint.
