The chemical sensor functional model captures the needs and is used to identify biological systems that change material in the presence of a chemical and that detect chemicals. Over 20 biological systems were identified.
Through translation, inspiration from the
physiology (function) of the guard cell coupled
with the morphology (form) and physiology of tropomyosin resulted in two innovative concept
variants for the chemical sensor.

Pre-processing or local processing happens at the stimuli site. Rather than actively process all stimuli, the stimulus intensity must meet a critical threshold or critical magnitude in order to trigger a sensory signal that elicits a response

Closing RemarksThis work contributes a design methodology and supporting framework of tools that enables designers to intentionally create biologically inspired solutions from a problem- or biology-driven approach.
Systematically exploring the biological space enables one to discover innovative solutions without requiring expert-level knowledge, but rather a broad knowledge of many fields.
Supports nature-inspired exploration for aerospace through integration with the V.I.N.E. research clusters.
