Good day peeps! =P
As mentioned in the earlier posts, starfish has the ability to stick on glass but how can it be relates to industry application? Please continue to read this post. =)
Starfish get around with structures called tube feet. Each consists of a tiny tube with a suction cup on the end. A typical starfish has hundreds of these structures. Starfish control their tube feet with the fluid of their vascular system. These tiny limbs allow them to slowly move across the sea floor.
The starfish use these structures to hold onto surfaces like they would hold onto your tank glass or hold and apply pressure to their prey just like the pictures shown below.
By taking inspiration from starfish, we are able to adopt the special locomotion from starfish and generate an idea on CREATING A "STARFISH" BODY SUIT WHICH HAVE THE ABILITY TO STICK ON GLASS. This body suit is targeted on the building cleaners for safety purposes as the adhesive suction cups can be positioned at the foot, knees, abdomen and between the elbow and wrist.
Lets read the next post for more details on the locomotion of starfish and how is this feature apply to the industry application.
