Background
Bionics
general term not only construction of body parts, also biomimetics, biomimicry
application of biological principles, methods, systems, social behaviour
and organizational principles from nature
strategies:
-
basic science of general principles, later identification of potential for ideas to transfer to technology
direct analogy search
Bionics
Example 1 - Velcro:
- one of the most famous examples of biomimetics
1948 Swiss engineer George de Mestral:
after walk with his dog recognized burrs in the fur (hair)
Velcro loops.
Study of Bionics often emphasizes implementing functions found in nature rather than just imitating
biological structures.
