Nature Inc. Doing what comes naturally. Episode 8
Description
Natural selection is a three billion year old product design process that can’t be beaten. It’s not just Velcro … 'Biomimicry' is a way of benefiting from nature by observing and adapting natural solutions into technical innovations. In this episode, we see how sharks, sponges and the brittle fish - equipped all over its body with thousands of optically perfect lenses with which it sees - are being studied for commercial potential.
