来自昆虫的灵感（英文）

Inspiration from Insects

昆虫在约4亿多年的进化过程中,成功地发展了多种多样的适应与生存绝技。创新科技的运用使科学家们能够解析不同昆虫新奇的化合物和特性,并将其用于工业和医学领域的仿生学研究。如受昆虫行走启发设计的机器人,根据昆虫色彩创造的军事伪装术,通过模拟昆虫飞行制造的微型探测器等,处处体现了来自昆虫的灵感。

Insects have been evolving over nearly 400 million years and have adapted to successfully occupy many different niches. Using new tools scientists are describing novel compounds and traits from insects that can be used in the field of bionic research for industrial and medical applications. For example, the robots have been inspired by insect walking, military camou- flage by insect colors, and micro-detectors from simulating insect flight, all inspired by insects.
