Nature did it first A beautiful and whimsically illustrated explanation of cool inventions like Velcro and scuba suits that were inspired by the natural worldDiscover how bats led to the development of radar, whales inspired the pacemaker, and the lotus flower may help us produce indestructible clothing. Biomimicry comes from the Greek bio (life) and mimesis (imitation). Here are various and amazing ways that nature inspires us to create cool inventions in science and medicine, clothing design, and architecture. From the fireflies that showed inventors how LEDs could give off more light to the burdock plant that inspired velcro to the high speed trains of Japan that take the form of a kingfisher's sleek, aerodynamic head, there are innumerable ways that we can create smarter, better, safer inventions by observing the natural world.
