INVENTIONS INFLUENCED BY NATURE This summer I subscribed to a new magazine, Science Illustrated, and received my first issue a couple of days ago. To my surprise it has outstanding articles and amazing illustrations. Even the advertisements are interesting... to see all the new technology that is happening. So I thought this month I would share with you some interesting facts that affect our lives from one of the articles,   Click on the images to enlarge... The blue morpha butterflies get their bright coloring from ambient light. The distance between the scales on the wings determines which light wavelength is reflected back to our eyes. This results in irridescent blues and greens, depending on the angle of your eyes. Using this natural ambient light, inventors use this same technology called interferometric modulator - MOD displays - for handheld devices such as cell phones. Do you like to invent things? What in nature inspires you? Do you wear contact lenses? If so, then did you know that Australian red seaweed showed scientists how to inhibit the growth of bacterial biofilms on the surface of your lenses? The seaweed is made up of a natural compound called furanones, which block the buildup of biofilms - layers that harbor bacteria and other microscopic life, on seaweed / on your lenses.
