Collaboration between biologists and engineers inspired breakthroughs by studying gecko toes and tails. Gecko feet, covered in billions of nano-sized split ends, led to the invention of a synthetic dry adhesive strong enough for humans to climb walls. High-speed cameras revealed the gecko’s tail acts as a fifth leg and a midair stabilizer, enabling agile landings and glides. These insights are fueling new generations of robots that move and balance in ways nature perfected over millions of years.
