Bio-medical studies Science And Engineering Discipline Biomedical Engineering Activity in online environment

Developed by ORT Israel for the Ministry of Education. In cooperation with the Bio-Medical engineering faculty of Ben-Gurion University. Under the supervision of Prof. Ofer Barnea (head of the bio-medical engineering department in Tel- Aviv University).

Designed for students with high learning abilities in science and engineering. Provides skills needed in the academic field. – research – independent thinking – team work. On-Line environment.

Bio-medical studies Fields of studies Physics, Chemistry or Biology Engineering Sciences Integrated projects -Electronics -Algorithmics -Bio-Medical Engineering The program is based on Analogies Theory.

What is Analogies Theory ? Analogies are fundamental concepts, thought processes or mathematic patterns, used in a variety fields of science. Learning by analogies helps the student develop a broad perspective of science and technology.

What is Analogies Theory ? Examples Minimum energy Magnification Resonance Waves Feedback and control Analysis of the graph gradients (derivatives) Analysis of the area below a graph (integral) Exponent expansion rate

Bio-medical studies On-Line environment Completely Interactive No books are required Teacher-Student interaction via Internet

Activity Example Measuring a walking man motion, and filtering the measurement's noise. Required equipment: Webcam Internet Excel Videoxp (a video editing software).

Phase1 :Download the instructions file.

Phase 2: Take a video clip of a walking man.video clip Phase 3: Follow the man’s movement (center and gravity) using Videoxp.Videoxp. Phase 4: save the movement data on a spreadsheet (time, location, x-axis, y-axis).

Phase 5: Ignore X-axis

Phase 6: In order to reduce the ponit’s noise, calculate the average of each 3 sequential points.

Phase 7: calc the speed of center

Phase 8: calc the acceleration of the center

Phase 9: calc the effort invested in the walk.

Phase 10: calc the power

Summary The On-Line means that were used: The Internet: download the instructions file. The Internet: getting a theoretical background. Web camera Electronic spreadsheet (Excel).
