A smartsuit was a kind of space suit that provided oxygen in space by creating a force field around the wearer's head. It also provided a compact helmet to protect the wearer when in space.

At least by the series 12 version the suit had an AI that was programmed to deactivate the organic components — i.e. the wearer. As such, the Twelfth Doctor noted that it was "sort of" a robot. Nardole recognised the interface as his ex, Velma which could be deactivated so long as the suit wasn't damaged.

At some point the Twelfth Doctor, Bill Potts and Nardole saw a vision of them in a library. (TV: A Time For Heroes)

Behind the scenes

The edition of the UNIT Alien Archive in DWA15 24 covered the smartsuits. The suits were given a danger level of 8.3 out of 10.
