Inspiring NATURE, inspired TECHNO Visit the new temporary exhibition Inspiring NATURE, Inspired TECHNO: Biomimicry and Transport and explore how nature inspires the creation of innovative technologies used in transportation. Interactive elements lead to a number of discoveries, like the fact that the squid’s propulsion system inspired the hydrojet, or that smart cars use a detection system similar to that of the locust. Test out the prototype of the Driving with Nature game The goal of the game is simple: draw inspiration from nature and modify your vehicle to improve its performance and beat the evil D. Tritus. Race across 5 Canadian regions to seek out your enemy as you learn more about biomimicry. Come play and share your experience! By offering all of these activities, the Museum is on a mission to test out the creativity of its visitors and ignite a spark of ingenuity!
