Biomimicry, or biomimetics, is the observation of a trait in nature that scientists and engineers seek to copy or alter for human design and technology. It is a relatively new discipline, although some point to Leonardo da Vinci’s anatomy observations and sketches of flying machines as being bio-inspired.
