More than just simple folding Origami involves folding two-dimensional sheets into complex three-dimensional objects. However, some shapes cannot be created using standard folds. Faber et al. studied the wing of an earwig, which can fold in ways not possible using origami and can alter its shape for flight.

Bioinspired Macromolecular Actuators
Materials Science Forum, 2004Some of the latest findings and research avenues in the realisation of bioinspired macromolecular actuators are highlighted in this paper. In particular, available technologies suitable for micro-scale devices (conducting polymers and carbon nanotubes) and macro-scale devices (dielectric elastomers) are separately analysed, with particular emphasis to ...

Bioinspired Structured Surfaces
Langmuir, 2012Nature has evolved objects with desired functionality using commonly found materials. Nature capitalizes on hierarchical structures to achieve functionality. The understanding of the functions provided by objects and processes found in nature can guide us to produce nanomaterials, nanodevices, and processes with desirable functionality. Various natural

Microorganisms can move in complex media, respond to the environment and self-organize. The field of microrobotics strives to achieve these functions in mobile robotic systems of sub-millimetre size. However, miniaturization of traditional robots and their control systems to the microscale is not a viable approach.
