The marvel superhero Iron Man has inspired the United States to create a real life version. America has made great leaps in the development of this exoskeleton in the past years. The Iron Man will greatly affect the world we know today. The exoskeleton would affect the military, the medical field, and the job industry.
Obama let it slip that the government is in the process of making and completing an Iron Man exoskeleton. This invention is not as big of a deal as the public is making it out to be. The process of making this prototype has been in the works for many years, as early as the 1960’s. If the government is eventually able to complete a successful model of this exoskeleton, it will affect many aspects in the lives of Americans. The largest area that the Iron Man prototype will affect is the military. Then the police force and medical field, and lastly jobs.
To begin, the Iron Man prototype will most likely affect military training techniques. …show more content…

When an individual has a paralyzed limb, they cannot use it to do anything. That limb is completely useless to the person.An exoskeleton could possibly help the paralyzed individual regain use of their limb again. Agata Blaszczak-Boxe in “Bionic Exoskeleton Could Help Paralyzed Patients Walk” explains an exoskeleton called “Hybrid Assistive Limb” or HAL that was created in Japan to help patients with paralyzed limbs. The skeleton under the Iron Man can move even if its wearer isn't able to move their limbs on their own. The HAL works by picking up faint brain signals through sensors on the patient's skin that tell the HAL to move. The HAL allows paralysis patients to gain at least a portion of their mobility back. The exoskeleton used to create the hybrid limbs are very similar to those that make the base of the Iron Man. The exoskeleton underneath the Iron Man will be very beneficial to the medical

As mentioned in Napoleons’ Button (Couteur and Burreson, 2003), ever since the discovery of penicillin, wound infection declines, saving plenty of lives, especially during the World War 2. The rapid advancement of drugs has indeed come a long way and even revolutionized the world. Drugs such as paracetemol helps to subside one’s fever and provide pain relief. On the other hand, drugs that are widely used illegally such as cocaine would be detrimental to one’s personal health when consumed. In any case, the mere existence of drugs is good in nature.

Igor Spetic is a volunteer at the research center in the Louis Stokes Cleveland Veterans Affairs Medical Center. He uses his left hand, which is his own flesh and blood, and his right hand, a plastic metal prosthetic (a consequence of an industrial accident). The prosthetic in his right hand uses the “myoelectric” device which is controlled by flexing his muscles in his right arm. Myoelectric prosthetics serves the purpose of an artificial limb while maintaining the appearance of the limb. Myoelectric prosthetics are different from body-powered prosthetics because body-powered prosthetics uses cables and harnesses strapped to the individual to mechanically and carefully guide the artificial limb through muscle, shoulder, and arm movements.

Warren G Harding was a man most historians revile. He is known for the “Ohio Gang”, a group of his friends that he put into power in the United States government, simply because they were his friends. This was probably not the best idea, as one of his friends leased government land to oil barons for a huge sum of money. Jess Smith, another friend of his was bootlegging, which meant that he was smuggling Alcohol while the prohibition act was in full swing, as well as “influence peddling, and other nefarious activities” (Anthony 1). Harding also was somewhat of a ladies’ man, and the fact that he was married did not slow him down one bit.

Part I: The history behind the great American sport, football, is a very important subject to me as I have played the game since I was eight. As I continued playing while getting older, leagues got more competitive and injury seemed to be more prone to some than most. I can’t even recall the amount of times the game has been stopped due to someone getting the wind knocked out of them, head-to-head collisions, sometimes even broken bones. The slide about rules evolution within the College Football realm resonated with me due to the fact that during this time football was being played, people were dying from injuries and the numbers of deaths were only rising. In 1905, eighteen players died and in 1908, that number increased to thirty-three.

I spend my observation hours in the training room this week. While in the training room, I learned a lot more about the e stem machine. I learned that e-stem is mainly used to reduce pain as opposed to actually healing the injured body part. The e-stem can also be used to help people recover from surgery. It is crazy thinking about all the resources we have now to help people return from injuries.

Space agencies around the world have a long history of collaboration, including with public health agencies. Space has also provided many new human experiences, such as zero gravity training. This training has showed various effects on the human body, helping scientist to better analyze the human body.” devices developed for space missions, such as the robotic arm that was used to assemble the international space station, have been adapted into a smaller robotic device for use in surgery” (Pascal 519). This robotic arm helps to be more precise during surgery, making the rate of casualty lower.

But wait there 's one more, the Cosmetic prostheses do not improve function, but are used to improve a person 's appearance after the loss of a body part. These include ocular prostheses -- artificial eyes -- and silicone hands, fingers, feet and toes. People with prosthetic legs can often climb stairs, walk, swim, and run as if h they were using natural limbs, while prosthetic arms and hands have advanced to the point where they give the individual control of all five fingers. If this is what scientists and doctors have accomplished in the past 50 years, it is difficult to imagine how much technology will improve within the
