John Adrian Siegel, President
In 1995 he co-founded and served as President for MOSAA, (a 501 C-3) non profit humanitarian & environmental organization, until 2004, when MOSAA merged with a charitable project called "The Friends of Pichon", to create "Education For Prosperity, Inc.". John's technical innovations, especially in the areas of robotics and cybernetics (to provide technologies that will improve the quality of life for the disabled), have earned him international accreditation. He has worked for over twenty five years in the sciences and arts. He has provided freelance assistance to science museums, corporations and educational facilities across the nation. Many of his designs and devices have been featured in projects by NASA, Divisions of the US government and Universities. Some of his areas of expertise are interactive exhibits, conventional & rehabilitation robotics, animatronics, mechatronics, conventional & medical electronics, cybernetics, autonomics, alternative and sustainable energies, physics, general science and interactive art.
The research and development of John and his partner Victoria Croasdell, has been acknowledged via the following: An Awarded Winner; in the 2004 NASA - Emhart Technologies, "Create the Future" contest. NASA Tech Briefs magazine and Emhart Technologies, a global leader in the design and creation of assembly technologies, sponsored the event. The submission, an Advanced Bandage that, (1) serves as a substitute for stitches, (2) eliminates skin damage from I.V. adhesive and regular bandages, and (3) provides emergency closure of wounds, was in the area of medical products. It was judged by a panel of the worlds finest engineers and industrialists for scientific functionality, product necessity and practical marketability. Cybernetics and Robotics; published by and presented before the IEEE RO-MAN 2003; International Workshop on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, October 31 - November 2, 2003, Millbrae, CA, USA, http://ro-man.org.

Cybernetics and Robotics; published by and demonstrated before Cambridge University's international conference on adaptive technologies, "CWUAAT", (Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology) in March of 2002; Cybernetics and Robotics; published by and demonstrated before the "International Conference On Rehabilitation Robotics" at Stanford University, in California, in July 1999; Cybernetics and Robotics; chosen in 2000 by the International "Discover Awards For Innovation" to receive an Award for ranking in the top ten of their category. This also earned them an invitation to demonstrate their prototype at the "Technology Exp 2000" at EPCOT Center, in Disney World. Cybernetics and Robotics; featured in the "Who's Who in Science and Engineering; 8th Edition - 2005 - 2006", publication, by Marquis, LLC. Cybernetics and Robotics; recognized by the UN as a substantial contributor in the area of robotics and featured in the United Nations "World Robotics 2004" publication, by the Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and the IFR; International Federation of Robotics. Cybernetics and Robotics; Their work has been published by Universities and Scientific Journals. It has been acknowledged in numerous news papers and television segments. Their most resent project in Rehabilitation Robotics was hailed as "a medical miracle in the making", by NBC Television. Additional Information; Their work has been published by Universities and Scientific Journals. It has been acknowledged numerous times in newspapers and television segments. In his work, Siegel uses biodegradable materials when ever possible, reprocesses what few solvents are used, and adds adaptation for the disabled whenever possible; including interactive electronics and interfaces. His art is in the collections of many famous individuals and has been on display in a number of galleries and museums. John is also working on a series of educational programs for television.
