This intricate figure may look like a suit of armour but was in fact made in 1582 to illustrate the human body. The maker used intricate iron parts, rivets and screws to explain how the body is pieced together – making Manikin the original Iron Man! You can meet Manikin and friends in our Robots exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland until 5 May 2019. #RobotsExhibition 🤖 www.nms.ac.uk/robots Robots was developed by the Science Museum.

Join us through 90 years of innovation as we explore an artifact from the '60s! The Transparent Anatomical Manikin, or TAM, was a model of human anatomy, created in Chicago by Richard Rush Studios. Using revolutionary materials for the time, TAM taught audiences different functions of human organs and was a lesson in physiology at MSI for years to come. ��If TAM looks familiar to you, watch to find out why! 🎸🤘 #90andBeyond #MSIChicago #Anatomy #1960s #Nirvana | Griffin Museum of Science and In
