My Big question
How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works
![Page 3: How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649e5e5503460f94b5765b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Research: the start
Sources I used: Medical Websites NC Live Google Scholar

Research = harder than I thought
Break it down Prosthetics Anatomy (show complexity) Amputees
Two Focus points Prosthetic progression Changing lives
![Page 5: How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649e5e5503460f94b5765b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What I learned
First signs of prosthetics were with the Egyptians
EMG (Electromyography) Tissue engineering Affects two million amputees
![Page 6: How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649e5e5503460f94b5765b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The new and the old
One of the first prosthetics ever!
An EMG doing its job taking input in.
![Page 7: How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649e5e5503460f94b5765b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
From the Egyptians
Like amputees now Egyptians wanted to be whole
Design is simple: wooden toe in a holster on foot
How fascinating!

Reflection on Writing process
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!”

Had a lot of ideas NXT mind-storms were my final choice Mentor: Mr. Ebright He knows the engineering process
The Product: Where to Start
This is a picture of a page from my beginning journal
![Page 10: How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649e5e5503460f94b5765b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Product steps
Research Built Program
This is me writing in my journal.This is what I was writing.

This was one of my early programming fails.
![Page 13: How have prosthetics progressed into what they are today? How it works](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/56649e5e5503460f94b5765b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This is the reason I can even control my robot with a gamming controller.

Reflection
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
