Inspiring Nature, Inspired Technology 

Nature inspirante

Nature is an endless source of inspiration! Discover how observing the living world has led to innovative transportation solutions over the years.

Did you know that the hydrojet on a personal watercraft was inspired by the squid’s jet propulsion system, that autonomous vehicles use a detection system similar to the one locusts use, or that there is an ultra-resistant glass resembling that of seashells?

This family-friendly exhibition is a unique opportunity to explore a dozen principles inspired by nature and applied to modern-day technologie

This exhibition is produced by the Museum of Ingenuity J. Armand Bombardier in collaboration with the Sherbrooke Museum of Nature and Science, the Zoo de Granby, and the Institut de biomimétisme. This project was made possible through the financial support of the Department of Canadian Heritage as part of the Museums Assistance Program
