What is Biomimicry?
Biomimicry is when nature or the environment inspires a designer to design a product. (1 mark) Sometimes a designer / scientist will look at the way nature has solved a problem through evolution and then they will apply it to a design problem.(2 marks)

Examples of Biomimicry in design
In 1941 Swiss engineer Georges de Mestral was walking his dog through a
field, when he realised that the dog’s fur and his trousers had numerous burrs attached to them. Burrs have natural
hooks that attach to almost any type of fur and also textiles. A consequence of this event, is that he invented VELCRO.
The shape of the ‘nose’ of the Japanese bullet train, was inspired by the kingfisher. The shape is very efficient and helps the train to move at
very high speeds, due to reduced drag. The shape also reduced the noise of the train, as it
exited tunnels at high speed. Other trains create a loud deep resonant sound when leaving a
tunnel at high speed.
