What is Biomimetics?

Design inspired by biological systems. Engineers study animal movement, sensing, and adaptation to create efficient machines.

Examples:
πŸ¦… Eagle wings β†’ Morphing aircraft
🦎 Gecko feet β†’ Dry adhesives
🐬 Dolphin skin β†’ Drag-reducing coatings
🎯

Understanding DOF

Degrees of Freedom = independent parameters to describe mechanism configuration.

Spatial (3D):
M = 6(n βˆ’ 1) βˆ’ Ξ£(6 βˆ’ fα΅’)

Planar (2D):
M = 3(n βˆ’ 1) βˆ’ 2j₁ βˆ’ jβ‚‚
