Presentation Transcript

  1. Engineering Adaptive/Assistive

  2. Technology Technology refers to the products and processes that are designed to meet our needs.

  3. Engineering Design Process Identify and Research a need. Develop possible solutions Make a prototype (a test model) Test and evaluate the prototype (Cost-Benefit analysis) Modify and retest.

  4. Sometimes Technology has unintended Consequences Medication Cars Internet List some unintended consequences from these technologies.

  5. Bioengineering Applying the engineering design process to living things. Can you think of a problem a living thing might have that needs to be solved. Remember people, plants and animals are all living things. Write down 3 problems

  6. Assistive Bioengineering: technology that helps organisms without changing them. Adaptive and Assistive Bioengineering

  7. Adaptive Bioengineering: technology that helps organisms by changing them. Adaptive and Assistive Bioengineering BRACES

  8. Which is Adaptive, which is Assistive Technology? Heart Pump(HELPER PUMP) Artificial Heart ARTIFICIAL HEART ADAPTIVE ASSISTIVE

  9. Bioengineered Corn Adaptive Technology: technology that helps organisms by changing them. Scientists have inserted into corn a gene from the bacterium Bacillus thurigiensis, usually referred to as BT. The gene makes a protein lethal to certain caterpillars that destroy corn plants. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/harvest/

  10. Bioengineered Corn ADAPTIVE Technology This form of insect control has two advantages: It reduces the need for chemical pesticides, and the BT protein, which is present in the plant in very low concentrations, has no effect on humans. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/harvest/
