Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
This week we are exploring biodevices and the part they play in the healthcare world. We-ll look at the challenges of implantable biodevices, like biocompatibility, power and connectivity, packaging, structural design, delivery systems, and device management. We-ll also dive into some of the latest research, like smart tattoos, and just what the future of biodevices might hold. Crash Course Engineering is produced in association with PBS Digital Studios

-Fun Fact: Even though the name -Titanium- tends to be viewed by the general public as some sort of invincible super-metal, I believe that titanium alloys are actually comparable in strength to plain old steel. The actual benefits are that it is light and I think more chemically durable (corrosion-resistant) than steel. Sort of like an expensive compromise between alumin(i)um and steel. -

Excellent opportunity to point out that while dedicated engineers are great for solving things like this, it can't be the only instance. Cochlear implants is one case where hearing engineers got a long way into making the thing before anyone asked the deaf community how a technology like that would affect them.

-crashcourse Hey love your videos! However I can't help but notice as an ICU nurse myself you have made a small mistake, and I know you are very good with accuracy. In an ICU you measure blood pressure through an Arterial Line not an IV(Intravenous) line. Measuring BP through an IV line would be impossible.

I've thought smart tattoos could be pretty awesome ever since I saw it as an implant in shadowrun 5th edition. That same book also had different glowing tattoos and even simple glowing displays implanted just under the persons skin. Really I just think all the implants in that game are cool.

As an engineer from an IVD company, i am impressed with this video. Thank you for giving people insight into this tech. Well done. Implantable tech also connects with high density capacitor and concentrated energy battery development, right on the witchy edge.

I am sure that there will be no Gov, no organization, no Corp, No unscrupulous individual or cartel or agency to use such to spy, manipulate, regulate alter, track or kill anyone as this tech advances. We can trust people right? Just being real here.

And I thought my healthcare costs were expensive now; adding tiny robots is going to make a $50 fee for a single gauze pad look like a steal. Eh don't worry about it I'm poor so I don't deserve health care anyways, that stuff is for people who matter.

The 'wifi' was 90's tech, very impressive. It uses a customized hardware and software communicating through EM fields. This allows a wand on the outside to telemeter with implanted devices.

I just want to say thank you for these vids. As a BME undergrad (in progress) thess vids are highly informative and helpful. This one was specifically useful in product design. Thanks

Anything that helps diabetics manage their disease more successfully is A-OK in my book. even if it does happen too late for my husband, I'm still excited for it.
