I am very lucky to take part in the Biomimetic ‘project’ which is to adopt a life and study the life in order to create a product or a process through mimic the adopted life. Research and reading help me to have an overall understanding on the adopted life (starfish) to expand my knowledge as well as inspire me to create something new. As we have six people in our group, we came up with the idea starfish bodysuit which is the most interesting proposed used of biomimicry and it seems to have similarity with the Spiderman suit that we watched from TV. It feels amazing if we are wearing the Starfish bodysuit and stick outside the building and it may become a reality. I think this design is patentable as currently it still considers a novel product and is unique enough to be approved even all of us already saw it in TV but that is not happen in reality yet. Through our research and study, we are able to determine the compounds on starfish which gives the adhesive properties and contribute to the starfish bodysuit which make our effort more scientifically proven for it to be functional. Carmen and myself have contributed by suggesting the novel industrial application of a starfish. I thoroughly studied the application of the SFP1 to fully comprehend the feasibility of the bodysuit. Working as a team made this project easier as more hands make for lighter work and six heads are better than one. One of the reasons is because we got more people in the brain storming section which able to come up with a lot of silly ideas, without the teammates we won’t came up this idea which may be feasible in our real life. Besides, work in a team we become more productive, creative and motivated than individuals on their own which will only give us more benefits than we work it by individual.
