From this biomimetic project, I had learnt a lot about starfish such as their characteristics, locomotion, and bio-inspiration ideas. I would like to thank my team members (Chiang Lin Chern, Stephanie Lai, Poh Jing Wen, Carmen Lee and Jason Gan) for taking good care of our starfish. It was difficult to own because it is needed a good environment system which is salty water, shrimp as food and required oxygen supply. If one of these conditions is missing, it will die in a short period. Hence, I appreciated the contribution of every member to this project. As leader of this team, I had a major role in coordinating and communicating to the team from different engineering disciplines. Besides that, Eason and I purchased the starfishes and set up the environment for the starfish to live in. Furthermore, I also want to express my greatest gratitude to my lecturer, Dr. Yong Leng Chuan for proposing us this project in our final year. It was been such a long time that I have a great time in the project and it brought a lot of fun to me. It is because this is the first time I own a starfish and it is interesting to observe how it sticks and moves on the container wall and its feeding process. Last but not least, I want to thank Taylor’s University for offering this Engineering and Biomimetic subject to me. This subject is very interesting as in raising pet project and industrial visit. I learnt a lot from the industrial visit and treasured this rare opportunity for learning other biomimetic products. I am sure the knowledge I obtain from this subject would be useful in my future career and it will become my advantage compare to others.
