  • (1992) Forensic use of DNA fingerprints. A scientist taking a sample from a bloodstained pair of jeans. DNA from the sample is then sequenced, providing a DNA fingerprint (such as those seen at the edges of the frame). This may then be compared with DNA from the victim and any suspect. In some cases, this may be used in conjunction with other evidence to positively link a suspect with both the victim and the scene of a crime. Modern amplification techniques allow DNA sequences to be taken from extremely small samples, such as a few spots of blood or a few hair follicles. (Scientist here is J. Bark). MODEL RELEASED

  • Joachim Rösch, a brewmaster at the Ganter Brewery in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany conducts a routine check of the factory.  (Joachim Rösch is featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80  Diets.)   The caloric value of his day's worth of food in March was 2700 kcals. He is 44 years of age; 6 feet, 2 inches tall; and 207 pounds. The brewery's main hall showcases old polished copper vats, but Ganter now also uses stainless steel tanks with computerized controls in a blend of traditional and modern beer making. Joachim's job requires him to taste beer a number of times during the week, and unlike in wine tasting, he can't just taste then spit it out: "Once you've got the bitter on the back of your tongue, you automatically get the swallow reflex, so down the chute you go," he says.

  • Known as the founder of modern industrial robotics, 74-year-old Joseph Engelberger hitches a ride around his workplace on LabMate. A now-standard platform that companies use for a variety of autonomous robots, LabMate is manufactured by HelpMate, the Danbury, CT company Engelberger founded in 1984. (He sold the company in 1999 to Pyxis, a subsidiary of Cardinal Health, a health-maintenance organization in Ohio, but remains there as a consultant.) Engelberger's interest in robotics dates back to his days as a physics and engineering student. In the 1960s he founded Unimation, the first company that made large robots for automobile factories. Recently Engelberger has devoted more of his energies to making robots that can move about and interact with people, the focus of HelpMate. From the book Robo sapiens: Evolution of a New Species, page 187.
