Prototype

Android 4F6, from Heather O’Neill’s futuristic world in the short story "The Dreamlife of Toasters” accidentally possessing the emotions “deemed unnecessary for their specific function in the world” (209) challenges the distinction between humans and their mechanical inferiors. Acting upon her unsolicited passion, the android is given the miracle of life, which causes her values to be compromised as her humanistic and robotic traits create internal conflict with respects to the decency shown…

treated differently than men and nonmothers. “Mothers experience disadvantages in the workplace in addition to those commonly associated with gender” (Correll, Bernard, Paik 1297). This trend can be supported by status characteristic theory as well as prototype bias theory. In the work place, mothers are viewed as the least valuable when compared to a man or a nonmother. In the article “Getting a Job: Is There a Motherhood Penalty?” the authors conducted a study to see whether mothers were…

Sgt.Stephan Lupien, Detective Scott Deciero, and Officer Jared Snapp, Thank you for taking time ot of your day to talk to us. The insight helped me and my peers to understand what day to day struggles you face. Our hope is to design and create a prototype for you to test. The most important part of this project is to help your job be less of a “job” and to create something that is practical and can be used daily. As juniors we learn how to program and create parts using CNC machines. These…

On October 14th my class went to Springfield IL the capital of Illinois. We enjoyed a 3 hour bus ride to Springfield and when we arrived we saw some awesome museums and even Lincoln's house! But, the coolest thing that I believe we did was seeing Lincoln's tomb. As we rounded the bend and the anticipation was growing we finally saw the giant monument in his honor; it was magnificent. But, as if that wasn't cool enough their was a giant Lincoln head! Strangely the statue was quite dirty except…

developed the first prototype which came out in…

earphones would be the best since it is small, light, portable, and people can easily hear it. So, she stole one of her parent’s earphone prototypes that they brought home. It was an easy task for her, since she steals all the time. Most of her theft act was a success. Re-programming the earphone would be the hardest of task. It took her a while to program her first prototype. She spent hundreds of hours trying to make it function correctly as she wanted it to be. It kept making random noises…

The Martian Design Process Sol 6 is the most daunting day in Mark Watney's journey on planet Mars. Watney shows an excellent use of the Design Process in twelve “quick” steps. The first step being the easiest, defining the problem. Watney has found a problem--he is stranded alone on a planet millions of miles away from home. In addition to this, his recurring issue is Watney needs to figure out a food source. Mark needs to figure out how to create an edible life source on a planet with no life!…

Analysis is perhaps the most affected by technology. Tools such as visual editing software allow artists to create concepts in very little time at almost no cost, modeling software allows engineers to do stress testing without even having to produce a prototype, and 3-D printing allows for the creation of models without the need to send blueprints off and wait months at a time. Implementation is improved in almost every way. New materials and production methods give artists new ways to express…

This abstract is a summary of research into malware called ‘Blue Pill’. It was developed by a security researcher named Joanna Rutkowska, a low-level security and stealth malware researcher. Her intention was to show that a prototype malware, code-named Blue Pill, could "100 percent undetectable” (Vaas, 2007). She created it as part of a research project. It worked by bypassing Microsoft 's digital signature protection for kernel mode drivers. The Blue Pill malware is like the movie, “The…

company was started with the intention of developing a vacuum fueled by technology that would combine superior quality and craftsmanship. Disappointed in existing vacuums, Dyson spent 15 years attempting to create such a product, making 5,126 vacuum prototypes before arriving at his solution. His new vacuum featured a bag-less design and easy maneuverability. By the late 1990’s, the company’s full line of vacuums were being sold globally. Dyson is a leading provider of household appliances,…
