About
🌿Bio-inspired R&D?
> Biomimicry is an R&D method that draws inspiration from the ingenuity of living systems (shapes, structures, mechanisms, interactions, etc.) to address industrial challenges and deliver smarter, more sustainable solutions.
> And this applies to many technical fields such as: materials, thermal regulation, tribology, acoustics and vibrations, fluid mechanics, sensors, algorithms, etc.
🔧 What does it look like in practice?
> At Bioxegy, we work hand-in-hand with the R&D teams of our industrial partners. To date, over 120 bio-inspired projects have been carried out, and our cross-sector expertise is well recognized, both in France and internationally!
