*STIIX Starter Bin ($25) is required for first time STIIX users. Once Starter Bin is good for unlimited STIIX projects*
Students will apply principles of biomechanics, empathy-driven design, and human anatomy to collaboratively design and construct a semi-functioning prosthetic leg that attaches below the knee.🦿
Set in the compassionate community of STIIX-Ville, students are challenged to build a prosthetic for a local woman adapting to life after limb loss. Through this real-world biomedical engineering scenario, students will explore joint movement, weight distribution, and user-centered design while documenting their process and evaluating the functionality of their prototypes.🏃♀️💨
Although this specific project is not on there, check out our optional Augmented Reality app, STIIXVille. In it, students can bring concepts & careers to life for 6 other of our other STIIX projects.🤳
