X-ray Vision: Examining Comic Book Science & Human Factors Design

X-ray Vision: Examining Comic Book Science & Human Factors Design
Thursday October 22, 2 p.m.

Presented by: Dr. Michael Clamann, UNC Highway Safety Research Center

Comic books offer us an opportunity to suspend disbelief while witnessing the superhuman feats of aliens, enhanced humans and advanced technologies. But does modern science fit in these fantastic stories? In this webinar we will investigate some of what’s possible, what’s real, and what some scientists do to make us superhuman. Join Dr. Michael Clamann, UNC Highway Safety Research Center’s resident human factors expert, in an interactive discussion of Iron Man’s armor as a human factors design challenge and other comic book science questions.
