Resource summary
Biomimetics
Inspiration from Nature
Creating solutions that mimic
Velcro, earliest example
Inspired by the effect of Burdock burrs attaching themselves to the fur of dogs
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!
Nanofibres
The Lotus effect
Dirt held apart from the main fabric so stains can not penetrate as deeply. Making the fabric easier to clean
New Fibres
FASTSKIN
