They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and I suppose that is true when you consider the kinds of machinations that we humans have thought up of all these years, looking to nature for inspiration. The latest inspiration. Solar panels that are touted to be more efficient after an attempt to copy how sunflowers work. Basically, any field of young sunflowers are able to rotate slowly to follow the course of the sun throughout the day, so that each leaf will be able to perform as much photosynthesis as possible – this particular adaptation is known as heliotropism.
