<html> <center><p><em>"Nothing in nature lives for itself. </em><em><strong>Rivers</strong></em><em> don´t drink </em><em><strong>their own water</strong></em><em>. </em><em><strong>Trees</strong></em><em> don´t eat </em><em><strong>their own fruit</strong></em><em>. The</em><em><strong> sun </strong></em><em>doesn´t</em><em><strong> shine for itself</strong></em><em>. A </em><em><strong>flower´s fragrance</strong></em><em> is not</em><em><strong> for herself</strong></em><em>. Living for each other is the rule of nature!"</em> - <strong>Daily Vibes </strong></p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>http://www.simpleimageresizer.com/_uploads/photos/fb01f0f2/IMG_6760_2_50.jpg</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>I am always asking myself how people came up with certain inventions. There are so many myths about what happened in human history but I still haven´t found the right answer for myself. In the course of the millennium people have invented a lot but it´s surprising that most of our inventions aren´t very unique because they already exist in nature long time before people published their own concoction. Sometimes the natural version is even more sophisticated than that created by human hands...</p> <p><br></p> <p>https://i.pinimg.com/736x/0c/a0/7e/0ca07e66dc943b33b337b7c248c4fac4--science-and-nature-step-program.jpg</p> <h3><br></h3> <h3>But anyway, I found some very interesting stuff that I wanted to share on my blog...</h3> <p><br></p> <h2>The Velcro Fastener </h2> <p>https://www.rubanstore.com/c/27-tm_home_default/klettverschluss.jpg</p> <p>The Swiss engineer, <em><strong>George de Mestral</strong></em>, observed that the fruits of the Great Burdock (<em>Arctium lappa</em>) clung to his dog's trousers and fur. On closer inspection, he discovered that the spines of the seeds at their tip have tiny elastic hooks and it took more than a decade until he could imitate the nature perfectly. </p> <p><em><strong>- Inspiration </strong></em> -</p> <p>https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/30/Arctium_lappa_MHNT.BOT.2004.0.16.jpg/220px-Arctium_lappa_MHNT.BOT.2004.0.16.jpg</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <h2>Sonar</h2> <p>http://static3.businessinsider.de/image/573c6d6355f77226008b51b4-1200/sonar.jpg</p> <p>After the titanic had sunk in 1912, scientists were increasingly working on technologies to locate objects under water. The French physicist <em><strong>Paul Langevin</strong></em> developed a system that is used to locate objects under the water by means of sound impulses and their echoes. Today known as Sonar. For humans, this technology is still relatively young, but animals have always used echolocation to navigate. </p> <p><em><strong>- Inspiration -</strong></em></p> <p>https://askabiologist.asu.edu/sites/default/files/resources/articles/bats/ecolocation_types.jpg</p> <p><br></p> <h2><br></h2> <h2>Suction Cups</h2> <p>https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41zzlpbei5L.jpg</p> <p>Suction cups can be perfectly attached to smooth surfaces. The first patent for a vacuum cup was established in the 1860s. But the suction cups at the tentacles of an octopus are way more advanced than the version of the humans. </p> <p><em><strong>- Inspiration -</strong></em></p> <p>https://ak6.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/2692076/thumb/1.jpg</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <h2><br> The high-speed train Shinkansen</h2> <p>http://www.acprail.com/images/stories/Bullet-Train.jpg</p> <p>The first versions of the Japanese train had a few problems...</p> <p>When leaving a tunnel they caused a loud thunder. The engineer <em><strong>Eiji Nakatsu</strong></em> was at the same time a passionate bird watcher and he noted that he could transfer the structure of the kingfisher's beak to the train to solve the problem.</p> <p><em><strong>- Inspiration -</strong></em></p> <p>https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cc/Common_Kingfisher_Alcedo_atthis.jpg</p> <p><br></p> <p>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p> <p><br></p> <p>I think it´s crazy how advanced the nature really is and we still haven´t discovered everything yet. I wanted to divide the article into different parts because humanity has invented a lot which is inspired by nature. The crazy thing about this whole thing is that I always feel inspired by nature, every day just like I wrote in my<a href="https://steemit.com/life/@soldier/what-is-an-inspiration-or-how-to-get-it"> inspiration post</a>. I have never thought about people getting inspired from nature to create amazing inventions. </p> <p>I live by the opinion that animals or nature in general give us so much in order to have a greater life but we are using them as slaves or even as food. I am not a vegetarian myself but I hate the way how people are treating the creatures of life. We should start to live a life together without mistreat the beings that help us to exist. Of course this includes plants as well! We are a part of nature so this quote belongs to the humanity as well -<em><strong> Living for each other is the rule of nature</strong></em>. </p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Biomimicry</strong></p> <blockquote>Taking inspiration from nature to solve human problems is the idea behind "biomimicry," or "biomimetics." Over time, evolution has led to some incredible developments, from the photosynthetic machinery in plants to the human eye. Taking a leaf out of nature's book, scientists have developed technologies that seek to mimic some of life's unique innovations.</blockquote> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <h2><em>Thanks for joining me today</em></h2> <h3><em>Stay focused </em></h3> <p><em>Love, Soldier </em></p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="http://www.businessinsider.de/sechs-erfindungen-die-von-der-natur-inspiriert-wurden-2016-5">source </a></p> <p>source - <a href="https://www.pinterest.de/hayhouseinc/inspiration/?lp=true">1</a> | <a href="https://www.rubanstore.com/de/27-klettverschluss">2</a> |<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctium_lappa"> 3 </a>|<a href="http://www.businessinsider.de/sechs-erfindungen-die-von-der-natur-inspiriert-wurden-2016-5"> 4 </a>|<a href="https://askabiologist.asu.edu/echolocation"> 5 </a>| <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Source-One-Premium-Large-1-3-4-Inch-44mm-Clear-Suction-Cups-6-Pack-S1-6suct-/361663405945">6 </a>| <a href="https://www.shutterstock.com/video/clip-2692085-stock-footage-suction-cups-description-suction-cups-on-an-octopus.html">7 </a>| <a href="http://www.acprail.com/rail-passes/japan-rail/bullet-train">8</a> |<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Common_Kingfisher_Alcedo_atthis.jpg"> 9</a> |</p></center> </html>
