The windward ear of jellyfish imitates the structure and function of jellyfish ear, and designs a storm predictor of jellyfish ear, which can predict the storm 15 hours in advance, which is of great significance to navigation and fishery safety.
According to the visual principle of frog eye, people have successfully developed an electronic frog eye. This kind of electronic frog's eyes can accurately identify objects with specific shapes like real frog's eyes. After installing electronic frog eyes in radar system, the anti-jamming ability of radar is greatly improved. This radar system can quickly and accurately identify aircraft, ships and missiles with specific shapes, especially distinguish between true and false missiles and prevent them from being confused with real missiles.
Electronic frog eyes are also widely used in airports and traffic arteries. At the airport, it can monitor the take-off and landing of aircraft, and give an alarm in time if it is found that the aircraft is about to collide. On the main roads, it can direct the driving of vehicles and prevent vehicle collisions.
According to the principle of bat ultrasonic locator, people also copied "Pathfinder" for the blind. This pathfinder is equipped with an ultrasonic transmitter, which blind people can use to find people on telephone poles, steps and bridges. Now, "ultrasonic glasses" with similar functions have also been made.

Frog electronic frog's eyes are holding an egg and squeezing hard. No matter how hard you are, you can't crush an egg. The thin eggshell can bear so much pressure because it can distribute the pressure evenly to all parts of the eggshell. According to the characteristics of this "thin shell structure", architects have designed many lightweight and material-saving buildings. The Great Hall of the People, Beijing Railway Station and many other famous buildings. The roof adopts this "thin shell structure". Rattlesnakes and modern military equipment rattlesnakes have almost zero vision, but the buccal fossa organs on their noses have the function of thermal positioning. Even if reptiles and small animals fall asleep at night, rattlesnakes can quickly perceive and prey by virtue of the heat energy emitted by their bodies. Scientists have developed modern night vision goggles and air-to-air rattlesnake missiles according to the unique functions of rattlesnakes. When giraffes with bionic infrared detectors and supersonic fighters with anti-load flight suits suddenly accelerate to climb, due to inertia, a lot of blood in pilots will flow from their hearts to their feet, resulting in cerebral ischemia. How to solve this problem? Scientists are inspired by the giraffe's body structure. Giraffe's neck is very long, and the distance between brain and heart is about 3 meters. In order to transport blood to the head, the blood pressure is relatively high, about twice that of the human body. But when the giraffe lowered its head to drink water, the blood did not rush to its head. It turns out that the thick skin wrapped on the giraffe's body has played a role. When giraffes bow their heads, their thick skin tightly clamps blood vessels and limits their blood pressure. The anti-load flight suit designed according to the principle of giraffe skin plays a role in limiting blood pressure to some extent. When the flight accelerates, the anti-load flight suit can also compress the air, which exerts certain pressure on the blood vessels, which is better than the giraffe's thick skin.
Learn from plants Plantago is a very common grass, and its leaves are arranged in a spiral shape. This arrangement makes each leaf get enough sunshine, which is beneficial to the growth of plants. According to the shape of banana leaves, architects designed and built spiral buildings, so that every room can enjoy bright and warm sunshine and avoid the shortcomings of ordinary buildings in this respect.
The spruce on the mountain has been attacked by strong winds for many years, and the bottom of the trunk has become thick and big, and the whole trunk has become conical. This shape makes spruce stand firmly on the top of the mountain. People imitate the radio and television tower built by spruce, even if it is attacked by a strong typhoon, there is no danger of collapse.
The inspiration of human invention comes from animal boats and submarines, and people imitate fish and dolphins. Scientists made the first gas masks in the world based on the special ability of wild boar nose to detect toxins. The rocket takes off by using the recoil principle of jellyfish and squid. Researchers have developed many military camouflage equipment for the army by studying the chameleon's color-changing ability. Scientists study frog's eyes. Invented the electronic frog eye. The US Air Force has developed a miniature thermal sensor through the "hot eye" function of poisonous snakes. Humans also designed a toad hammer according to the principle of frog leaping. Humans imitate the highly sensitive sense of smell of police dogs and create an "electronic police dog" for investigation.
Bionic and high-tech modern radar, a radio positioning and ranging device: scientists have found that bat magic relies not on eyes, but on an echo positioning system consisting of mouth, throat and ears. Because Bat Magic emits ultrasonic waves when flying, it can also detect the ultrasonic waves reflected by obstacles. Scientists have designed a modern radar-a radio positioning and ranging device ... By studying the low swimming resistance of dolphins, scientists have invented an artificial dolphin skin that can improve the torpedo speed; And a wheeled vehicle (jumping machine) that imitates kangaroo's movement in the desert.
Inspired by King Penguin, scientists from the Institute of Zoology of the former Soviet Academy of Sciences designed a new type of car-Penguin Ace Polar Off-road Vehicle. The car's broad bottom is directly attached to the snow surface, and it can be propelled with a wheel spoon at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.
Scientists make space robots by imitating insects.
A research team of Australian National University has developed a small navigation and flight control device by studying several insects. This device can be used to equip small aircraft for Mars exploration.
Inspired by bionics, British scientists are developing a new submarine, which can swim in an S shape by swinging its tail fin. The main innovation is the use of a device called "trunk actuator". "Elephant trunk" consists of a group of thin and soft hoses, which imitate muscle activity and promote fin movement. This new submarine can be used as an underwater mine-sweeping submarine to deal with mines that will detonate if there is a little noise or interference.
