HEMIXO
The airless ball. A honeycomb structure that replaces pressure with geometry.
The concept
No more air. No more limits.
A regular ball depends on internal pressure. Hemixo replaces it with a network of hexagonal cells that absorbs and returns energy at every bounce.
Zero pressure
No inflating, no valve, no leak to watch.
Honeycomb geometry
Thousands of hexagons spreading stress across the whole surface.
Puncture-proof by nature
No inner tube: no puncture, whatever the conditions.
Beneath the surface
A skin that breathes
Every cell is a tiny spring. Light passes through the shell: the structure is open, light and visible all the way through.
Interactive 3D model
Explore Hemixo
Spin it, zoom, change colour or switch to wireframe. The model is optimised to stay smooth, even on mobile.
Simulation
The bounce test
Lower the regular ball's pressure: its bounce collapses. Hemixo doesn't depend on any pressure.
Settings
Illustrative simulation: it shows the principle (bounce tied to pressure or structure), not real measurements. Physical tests will come with the prototype.
