Biomimicry has been used by human beings for very long to solve their issues using designs from nature. Life on Earth has existed for more than 3 billion years and the process of evolution due to natural selection has given rise to the most simple, robust and economic designs. Using these designs to improve, innovate and design products or implementing them on a molecular level to solve human problems would best describe the term biomimicry. Various examples are showing the...
