Teslasuit

What Teslasuit does

Teslasuit (operated by Deep Divers Limited, registered in England and Wales) is a privately held haptic wearable technology company founded in 2016 and headquartered in London, with an R&D office in Prague and an EU shipping warehouse. The company designs, manufactures, and sells the Teslasuit — a full-body smart garment integrating an 80-channel electro-muscle-stimulation (EMS) and TENS haptic feedback system, 14 inertial-measurement-unit (IMU) motion capture, and biometric sensors (PPG, HRV, EMG) — alongside Teslaglove, a haptic glove with force feedback and finger tracking. The hardware is priced at $12,999 per suit (with up to 30% academic discount) and is sold exclusively to B2B buyers; ancillary software (Control Center, Teslasuit Studio) and a developer SDK with Unity/Unreal Engine plugins and Python/C++ APIs round out the offering.

Teslasuit serves four primary customer segments: academic and research institutions (50+ globally), enterprise XR training (defense, aviation, automotive, energy, construction), medical and rehabilitation providers (via FES-based open-loop, finite-state, and closed-loop PID control modes), and game/entertainment developers. The company has executed high-visibility deployments with Volvo Cars, DTEK, Vodafone UK, Formula 1, and Wasps Rugby, and has research collaborations with institutions such as the Hospital for Special Surgery, Reade Amsterdam, Auburn University, Technical University of Darmstadt, and Universität Heidelberg. GTM combines direct enterprise sales, a discount-driven Academic Program, and a network of 100+ channel partners across North America, Europe, Middle East, Asia, and Latin America.

In January 2026 Teslasuit unveiled the XR5 flagship at CES 2026, and in April 2026 announced a strategic collaboration with Magicgate to drive U.S. market expansion into defense, aviation, healthcare, and enterprise. The company generates revenue primarily through one-time hardware sales, custom orders, and software/SDK licensing, and is actively hiring across software, firmware, electronics, mechanical, textile, and QA disciplines in Prague to support ongoing product and platform development.
