Biorobotics

• Uses solutions developed by nature to solve engineering problems

• Help making new kinds of robots• Makes us understand better how biological

systems really work

Bio-inspired and biomimetic robots

• Bio-inspired robots – reproduce the results of biological phenomena without necessarily reproducing the underlying working principles

• Biomimetic robots – reproduce also the means of getting the results
