Col. Mike Fincke, at his current residence aboard the International Space Station. Lt. Col. Fincke has been on board since April, and didn't want to miss the chance to briefly join his classmates during their 15 year reunion at MIT.</p><p>This remarkable connection with the space station was made possible by AMPS technology and personnel, most notably Craig Milanesi and Kevin Kirwin. As Astronaut and Alum Mike Fincke told the 1,100 in attendance at Kresge, "When we were setting this (videoconference) up with NASA, they were wondering if we would be able to get good audio and video... I said that if anyone can do great audio and video, it's MIT!"</p> 948 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/184595380 2007-04-18 21:09:59 -0400 MIT Video Productions Clinical trials have already shown that an MIT robotic arm can help stroke patients regain movement faster. Now MIT pioneers in the field of robotic therapy, Professor Neville Hogan and researcher Hermano "Igo" Krebs, are hoping a robotic gym full of machines targeted at different parts of the body will significantly improve stroke patients' movement in arms, wrists, hands, legs and ankles.This video produced by MIT Video Productions for the MIT News Office in 2005 documents MANUS, the MIT Robotic Rehabilitation Project and the recently developed Anklebot<br />. 304 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/184577920 2008-10-05 16:09:03 -0400 MIT Video Productions Highlights of the <a href="http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2008/institute-0929.html">MIT State of the Institute Forum</a>, held on September 29, 2008. 272 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/184560460 2007-04-19 22:44:07 -0400 MIT Video Productions 257 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/191503180 2007-04-19 20:38:26 -0400 MIT Video Productions Mit Police Car on the Dome of Building 10 <br /> 27 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/191308740 2007-04-20 00:33:09 -0400 MIT Video Productions 20 second version<br /> 21 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/190368280 2009-01-02 17:57:47 -0500 MIT Museum In 2008, over 1,300 people came, participated and watched as artist and renowned chain reaction creator Arthur Ganson led the 11th Annual Friday After Thanksgiving Chain Reaction. Teams from all over the country bring a link, which is then connected to the next link and becomes one giant contraption, set off at the magic moment by Ganson. Engineering principles, laws about motion and energy and all kinds of other science - including the natural world - pop up during the Friday After Thanksgiving Event at the MIT Museum, held in Rockwell Cage Gymnasium. 1433 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/189721260 2008-02-13 13:43:34 -0500 MIT Sloan Dec. 5-6, 2007 Part 2 Sustainability is no longer relegated to offices that handle isolated issues like waste management or corporate charitable giving.
