Bionics

Bionics as we should precive it “Adjective; 1. Utilizing electronic devices and mechanical parts to assist humans in performing difficult, dangerous, or intricate tasks, as by supplementing or duplicating parts of the body: The scientist used a bionic arm to examine the radioactive material. 2. Informal. Having superhuman strength or capacity. Noun, ( used with a singular verb) 1. The study of how humans and animals perform certain tasks and solve certain problems, and of the application of the findings to the design of electronic devices and mechanical parts.” dictionary.reference.com/browse/bionic “Bionics is the application of biological methods and systems found in nature to the study and design of engineering systems and modern technology.”…

The Bionic Factor One of the first public mentioning’s of bionic engineering can be credited to the Marvel™ Universe, with the Iron Man comics. In the comics, Tony Stark is forced to integrate a micro-magnetic field into the tissue and muscle layers around his heart. This leads to the comics transforming his bionic technology that is keeping him alive into something that Stark builds another empire around (Fichera). Iron Man was not the only media source delving into the idea of the impossible.…

As soon as he reaches his first objective, Tung fights a giant and steals his sword as a spoil. As Tung and his brothers lay siege to the capital, it comes clear that the Gleannians weren’t the ones who hired the mercenaries. They gather this by interrogating capture enemy soldiers and that the mercenaries weapon only used by elite Pontikian troops. The Princess tasks him to kill the mercenary leader. This leads Tung to a warehouse where it turns out the leader is a giant computer that takes…

battles and many lost limbs resulted in American scientists entering the field of prosthetics. Even in World War I there was discussion of how prosthetics should come about for wounded soldiers. Given this rising issue the surgeon general of the United States created the American Orthotic & Prosthetic Association. Finally, “around World War II the American government pressured the military sector to invest more capital into the functionality of prosthetics for wounded soldiers over that of…

What is the Bionic Eye and how are Australians involved? A bionic eye mimics the function of the retina to restore sight for those with severe vision loss. It’s proudly pioneered by Australia, giving Aussies a great name to Science. Researches from the Bionic Ear Institute, University of Melbourne and the University of New South Wales are in the development of a better bionic eye, which incorporates easier lifestyle. The inventor of the bionic eye Mark Humayun invented the first prototype of the…

They cannot do many things that they used to do in their normal lives when they still have their limbs. A few hundred years ago, a hand amputee could only have a hook prosthesis with limited function and social stigma for the replacement of his hand. As the technology advances, hand amputees can now have the option for a hand transplant with bionic hands. Not only for the hand amputees, but also those with arms and legs amputated are able to have bionic prosthesis transplantation nowadays. The…

In the article, “Bionic spine could pave the way for new paralysis treatments”, we can see how sheep were utilized in a research project. In this study, the sheep were inserted with a stentrode device, which was placed in the blood vessel that is associated with the movement part of their brain. The stentrode, which is also known as a bionic spine is able to pick up the motor cortex’s signals by use of electrodes. For 190 days, the stentrode recorded the signals of the sheep’s movement (NHS…

I am a second year undergraduate student studying polymer engineering at Case Western Reserve University. The purpose of this memo is to introduce a technology called Ocumetics bionic lens and its significance. Definition of Ocumetics Bionic Lens • Ocumetics bionic lens is a type of hollow polymer chambered lens used to be implanted in human’s eye and correct the eye vision for an entire lifetime. o Invented by Dr. Garth Webb and his team of visual scientists o This technology lets the…

might be able to see tiny germs without the use of a microscope? Well the time has come, scientists have created a type of bionic lens that allow humans to zero in on the tiniest of objects without the assistance of a third item such as the microscope. For hundreds of years, scientists have been using the microscopes to make major discoveries such as proving the existence of minuscule living organisms that cannot be seen to the naked eye. However due to the physical laws restricting light to…

morning! B. Have any of you as a child ever wanted to become a super hero? Or maybe have a few super hero powers? Super strength? Super speed? Super senses? Well what if I told you that in the year 2017 you will be able to get super human Vision! Yea that’s right dump your contacts, trash your glasses, and put those 4 eyed jokes into extinction! C. A new invention called the Ocumetric Bionic Lens will solve all your vision needs. This invention is important to me because I suffer from Myopia…
