C-MITES Summer Program
(Carnegie Mellon Institute for Talented Elementary and Secondary Students Summer Program)
Application Deadline April 5, 2013
Anatomy and Robotics
July 8-12
Here’s a class for the aspiring physician, scientist or roboticist!
Learn the anatomical concepts of the bones and muscles that make up the human arm. Dissect a chicken wing to see the components and how it functions. Discuss extension and flexion of the arm and how the elbow and wrist move. Diagram the muscles and bones and make life-sized models. Program a circuit board and make your arm model come to life. Use servos, LEDs, and sensors as you apply robotic technology to make your anatomical model move in a very realistic way. When science meets technology you will be amazed -- we’re not twisting your arm! Grades 5-7.
(Minimum EXPLORE Science Score=10)
