Der Biologe Robert Full zeigt uns Zeitlupenvideos von ein paar faszinierenden Tierchen. Schauen Sie sich die stacheligen Beinchen der Schaben näher an, die ihnen das Überqueren von Gitter erlauben, und die Nanoborsten an den Füßen der Geckos, mit denen sie Wände hinauflaufen können.

Robert Full studies cockroach legs and gecko feet. His research is helping build the perfect "distributed foot" for tomorrow's robots, based on evolution's ancient engineering. Full bio »
