  • Learn all about robotic prosthetics, aka myoelectric devices! Find out how they work, how people can control the movements, and meet Tracy, a woman who wears a prosthetic arm! It gives you an incredible appreciation for medical technology and hope for those who have an amputation or congenital limb difference.
    Huge thank you to Tracy, Kylee and Todd for participating in this video!

    This is a very interesting video! As an engineer who does medical research, I love videos like this to learn about new things. My boss was trying to push me to continue working on lasers for surgery. I feel like there are a lot of engineers who end up doing one specific thing in medicine that isn't too appealing to them. I have friends who find medicine boring because they don't see all of the different aspects of it -- they just think of sitting in a lab and pulling bones apart or crushing them to get tension data, for example. Or they think of people who just decide what materials to make screws out of.
    Are you planning on making more videos of this sort of content where you show the great impact engineering can have on people's lives?
    PS Happy Holidays Siobahn!

    It’s so crazy to see how fast prosthetic devices are progressing! I’d imagine there’s a little bit of a learning curve when getting used to them though. Especially when you showed the process of “learning” the electrical impulse signals. In the learning process, is it a patient by patient process, or is it more of a universal fit? Maybe some fine tuning depending on the patient?

    Please do a video on bariatric surgery/bariatric patients. I think it’s so important that medical personal in the emergency department and other areas know more about this especially the mental emotional side of things for the patient. Also so society knows more about the surgery and the process people have to go through to have surgery in Ontario.

Siobhan, you have often requested that your viewers ask to have any further explanations of a subject covered. Could you do a video explaining the difference between Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis? Can it effect the body differently or the same for other reasons?

Manny, in The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, is one of my favorite characters and he had multiple arms for different tasks. One of the characters in the story I'm writing needs assistive limb support in a powered exoskeleton after a spinal injury. I wonder how long before they can grow replacement limbs.

    I’m going to be honest, when this video came out siobhan I was in the woods chopping logs đŸȘ”😅 but I made it though that and it was very very nice to see this video before I get started on my school work, but honestly at more than one point in this video I was like “ Star Wars prosthetics are here at last!!!!” And I’m going to be honest here, how these limbs work are fascinating and exciting!!!! Like my specialty is aerospace engineering but this is something that quite literally made my draw drop!!!! Not just at how the hand arm and leg work and what they are used for but also for how long it took Tracy to g west used to the device. I’m not saying that I think it’s easy because that would be offensive in my opinion but I honestly can’t imagine the challenges and hardship that she must have had to go though in order to get used to using the device! Like that blew my mind! But anyway I much as I would love to keep typing this comment I have I get my schoolwork done so have an absolutely amazing day Siobhan and keep up the absolutely amazing and fantastic work!!!!!
