2. How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works

3. Sources I used: Medical Websites NC Live Google Scholar

4. Break it down Prosthetics Anatomy (show complexity) Amputees Two Focus points Prosthetic progression Changing lives

5. First signs of prosthetics were with the Egyptians EMG (Electromyography) Tissue engineering Affects two million amputees

6. One of the first prosthetics ever! An EMG doing its job taking input in.

7. Like amputees now Egyptians wanted to be whole Design is simple: wooden toe in a holster on foot How fascinating!

8. Hardest part was organization of facts Became easier to write as I got into the topic Favorite part Someone reading my paper and saying “I didn't know that!”

9. Had a lot of ideas NXT mind-storms were my final choice Mentor: Mr. Ebright He knows the engineering process This is a picture of a page from my beginning journal

10. Research Built Program This is me writing in my journal. This is what I was writing.

11. RobotC Mind-storm kit Internet Computer gaming controller

12. This was one of my early programming fails.

13. This is the reason I can even control my robot with a gamming controller.

15. I learned how to motivate myself Worked around procrastination & organization issues Ties in with my paper Uses past and present tech./design Problem solving with my mentor

16. Two more years of college Go into creative fields
