Biomimetics

Biomimetics

1. Inspiration from Nature

   • Creating solutions that mimic

2. Velcro, earliest example

   • Inspired by the effect of Burdock burrs attaching themselves to the fur of dogs

3. Inotek Fabric

   • Inspired by the Pine Cone
     • Pine cones close to prevent water/moisture getting in
       • Fibres close causing the yarn to tighten
         • Keeps moisture out!

4. Nanofibres

   • The Lotus effect
     • Dirt held apart from the main fabric so stains can not penetrate as deeply. Making the fabric easier to clean

5. New Fibres

   • FASTSKIN
