  • Bob Goodman, a rancher in Halfway, Oregon, lost his arm in a freak accident. Researchers at the University of Utah gave him a myoelectric arm, which he controls by flexing the muscles in his arm that are still intact. Sensors on the inside of the prosthetic arm socket pick up the faint electrical signals from the muscles and amplify them to control the robot arm. In this way, Goodman can do most things as he did before his accident. Here he is arm-wrestling with a neighbor in a local bar called the Sportsman's Club: showing off the strength of his electric arm motor. (Actually the arm has no lateral force, only frontal, but the hand does have more gripping power than a normal hand.)

  • Micro Technology: Micromechanics: Light micrograph of the detector 'teeth' of a micro-resonator. This is a tiny mechanical resonating structure, made by the same silicon deposition process used in the manufacture of microcircuits. The 'teeth' seen here detect the motion of the resonator, the central buff-colored object. The dark vertical lines running above and below the resonator are the strands of silicon connecting the sensor to the resonant masses. The strands are only two microns thick, but at this scale silicon has a greater mechanical strength than steel. Micro-resonators have a variety of uses in detecting very small amplitude motions. [1989]
