Circuit Basics
This is a circuit that does not have any load.
What is a short circuit?
This is the software we used for 2D modelling.
What is Onshape?
This is an artificial limb.
What is a prosthetic?
During this step of the engineering design process, engineers find out more information about their problem.
What is Research?
This component spins when voltage is applied to it.
What is a motor?
This is a circuit that has multiple branches.
This medical imaging technique is used to detect fractures in bones.
What is x-ray imaging
During this step of the engineering design process, engineers evaluate their design and see how it functions.
What is Test?
This sensor measures distance using a specific wavelength of light.
What is an infrared sensor?
This is what LED (as in the light) stands for.
What is Light Emitting Diode?
This process turns 3D models into physical objects.
What is 3D printing?
This force is the force that allows muscles to move.
What is tension?
During this step of the engineering design process, engineers think of possible solutions.
What is Imagine?

What is an ultrasonic sensor?
This device has variable resistance.
What is a potentiometer?
This tool is used in professional 3D modelling softwares to turn a flat sketch into a 3D object.
What is Extrude?
These are the four main fields of engineering relevant to different fields of biomedical engineering.
What is electrical, mechanical, materials, and chemical engineering?
During this step of the engineering design process, engineers identify the need and constraints of their problem.
What is Ask?
This is a compact, self-contained mini computer on a single microchip. An example of this object is an Arduino.
What is a microcontroller?
This type of motor spins only in one direction and can be controlled by angle.
What is a servo motor?
This is what CAD (in modelling for engineering) stands for.
What is Computer Aided Design?
This implantable medical device helps regulate irregular heart rhythms.
What is a pacemaker?
During this step of the engineering design process, engineers redesign their prototype as needed.
What is Improve?
