Episodes
Magic of Motion
Most animals, and even a few plants, move. They swim, walk, run or fly in a wide range of ways. This episode looks at how designers of planes, cars and robots have found inspiration in nature.
The Material World
Nature invented a whole range of hi-tec materials long before we invented ceramics and plastics. And not only are they often better, but nature has also invented ingenious ways of building with them.
Lifepower
Nature has to be efficient in the way it processes information and uses energy so when scientists began to look at nature with biomimetic eyes, it's not surprising that they started to see entirely new visions for our future.
