Biomimicry: technology inspired by nature

Biomimicry in tech and engineering demonstrates how much we can learn from nature and natural systems.
Some of the most famous inventions and in design and technology have been inspired by nature.
Humans are continually looking for new ways to improve already-invented designs and, surprisingly, nature is helping humans construct better designs than ever before. The approach to human innovation through mimicking been the fundamental basis of many inventions and I will talk about some of them.
The Cockroach inspired a near-indestructible miniature robot. It is smaller than a penny but mighty in carrying loads and runs 14 body lengths per second, making it both the smallest and the fastest micro-robot out there. Using multi functional foot pads, it can swim on water surfaces and is also fitted with smart sensors that help it feel its surroundings.
I guess it will be the first one to show-up before any firefighter or a rescue dog is able to, in emergencies like earthquakes. In the future, it might crawl into spaces where physical inspection is not possible.
2. Nature’s Inspiration — School of Fish
Use Case — Nissan connected cars
In the next couple of years or so, cars will be autonomous and the need for lanes & signals would be gone. One of the important goal of the automotive industry is to virtually achieve zero fatalities/serious injuries among the passengers of its vehicles.
Nissan’s engineers were studying a school of fish and noticed the fish weren’t separated by any lines that help guide them across. They somehow manage to swim extremely close to each other without causing a collision, this natural phenomenon inspired the EPORO (Episode 0 Robot). They utilize a Laser Range Finder (LRF) technology to communicate among themselves to monitor each other’s positions, avoiding collisions, travel side-by-side, or in single-file, thus exhibiting the behavior of fish swimming...
