Superelastic multi axis flexure

A multi-axis payload isolation device for isolating a payload from outside motions, the device comprising:

• a payload mount base configured to support a payload;
• a housing comprising an interior cavity for receiving and supporting the payload mount base;
• and
• a flexure comprising:
• a plurality of radial supports made of a superelastic shape-memory alloy that attach the payload mount base to the housing;
• and
• a common hub configured to connect each of the plurality of radial supports to the payload mount base;
• wherein the plurality of radial supports comprise a first plurality of radial supports that connect the housing to a first side of the payload mount base at the common hub, the flexure further comprising:
• a second plurality of radial supports connecting the housing to a second side of the payload mount base opposite the first side at a second common hub;
• wherein the first plurality of radial supports and the second plurality of radial supports each form a frustoconical configuration extending from the housing to the payload mount base.
