Brilliant Bio-Design: 14 Animal-Inspired Inventions
http://webecoist.com/2011/01/14/brilliant-bio-design-14-animal-
inventions/
神的创造给了人类太多的灵感，我自己真的不能视而不见。
Surveillance cameras flap their wings in the sky just like birds and
bats. Tiny little hairs on gecko feet help a robot climb a smooth
vertical surface. The impact-resistant surface of human teeth inspires
light and durable aerospace materials. Just like designs inspired by the
sea, insect-mimicking inventions and buildings that look like natural
terrain, these 14 examples of biomimicry based on animal and human
biology capitalize on the unparalleled efficiency of nature.

Robotics have always been bound by the limitations of the computers of
their time, but as computer technology continues to evolve, more complex
calculations for a wider range of movements become possible. And the
capability of flexible, pliable movement has given way to more advanced
designs like this one: a new ‘biomechatronic’ handling system based on
an elephant’s trunk. Created by German engineering firm Festo, the
Bionic Handling Assistant smoothly transports heavy loads, expanding and
contracting by inflating or deflating air sacs within each ‘vertebrae’.
