Eason's Reflection

In this research project, we have studied and understand most of the anatomy and features of a chocolate chip starfish. Although there are many kinds of starfish in the ocean, almost all of them have the same unique ability which is their regeneration capability and their unique locomotion system. The most interesting topic discussed in this blog will be the novel industrial application section where a sticky concept suit is proposed which can be used by workers that work at high altitude or high rise building that could ensure their safety during. This is because of our main Moto agreed by the team were to be safety. Although there are much more improvement that is needed to be made, the idea has still proven to be quite an impressive and logical. The starfish was under the care of Jason and myself before the semester break. We contributed in keeping the environment of the aquarium suitable for the starfish. Besides that, Charles and myself in the beginning of the semester purchased the starfishes together and it was an amazing experience.

Needless to say, working in a team has allowed effective idea generation. Each of us also allowed wild ideas to be proposed so that we could build our idea on each other’s wild idea to form an incredible idea. But all in all, this project has brought our team a wonderful chance to study the life of an extraordinary marine life which is not an ordinary marine pet which can be found in normal household. The reason is simply because it requires only a specific environment for it to be able to sustain its life. By taking up this challenge to adopt such a challenging animal as our biomimicry research study subject, it allowed us to learn new things and work outside of our comfort zone.
