The human body can be viewed as a complex machine, with systems that can be analyzed,
optimized, and enhanced through engineering principles.
Advances in prosthetics and biomedical engineering are enabling the creation of
devices that integrate seamlessly with the human body, improving functionality and
quality of life.
Ergonomic design, inspired by human biomechanics, can lead to improved tools, workspaces,
and technologies that enhance human performance and reduce injury.
Biomimicry, the practice of drawing inspiration from biological systems, can lead to
innovative engineering solutions that are efficient, sustainable, and effective.
