Bio-inspired robots are machines designed by mimicking the structures and functions of living organisms. These robots often take inspiration from animals, insects, and plants to enhance their movement, efficiency, and adaptability. For example, a robot modeled after a gecko may use its unique foot structure to climb smooth surfaces, while a fish-inspired robot can swim more effectively in water. Researchers study the behaviors and physical traits of various species to create robots that can perform specific tasks in challenging environments. This field combines elements of biomimicry, robotics, and engineering to develop innovative solutions for problems in areas like search and rescue, exploration, and environmental monitoring.
