Well this is the end of the semester and I thought that its time to wrap up the class so I am posting an article that I think wraps up this term very nicely. Enjoy.
Here is another interesting article about bio-inspired robotics. They have a particularly interesting flying robot based off of a fly as well as other pages including nanostructures, biomaterials, and more.
I found this website, it has a compilation of 14 really cool inventions all inspired by mother nature. Take a look and see if something will intrigue you, I spend a few minutes on it and i recommend it. My favorite was the one based off of humans teeth, but you will have to read to find out what teeth can inspire!
Hey guys, I found this short little site that has a bunch of cool applications of nature to architecture. Definitely worth your time if you're looking for an interesting read. Enjoy!
This is a site full of fascinating innovations that have been inspired by life, the first and most interesting, in my opinion, is a breathing apparatus that draws air from the water like a fishes gills.
I found this (fairly small) website about biomimicry and how it can be applied to architecture. It has some really cool articles including one about a carbon neutral housing design based off of coral that they would like to see implemented in Haiti. Great stuff, wish the site was larger!
