Bio mimicry is at the heart of today's innovation and technology

Nature has inspired great innovations known today. We have all been inspired to learn and apply nature driven designs that provide sustainable solutions for a balanced ecosystem. A few weeks ago I spent some time observing a spider weaving its web. I was very perplexed by its artistry and by the way it kept spinning the silk as it built the web. Fun fact is that, the fabric of the spiders silk is at least five times stronger than the steel metal of similar diameter. In addition, it could be very interesting to investigate the structural properties of the extraordinary structures they weave. This could perhaps be vital information in Architectural and Urban design.

I believe that bio mimicry is a fundamental area of study that needs to be explored in different scientific and engineering fields in order for humanity to bring nature driven solutions to some problems the World is facing today.
