A bioinspired design process for a climbing robot. Insights arise from hypotheses about how complex biological systems can be simplified while preserving important functional attributes. Multi-material prototyping processes (e.g. SDM) make it possible to produce bioinspired robots that embody some of these principles. Testing invariably leads to refinement of the hypotheses.
