|b No one can deny that modern life is invaded by technology, which is in continuous evolution. This technological evolution has a detrimental effect on the ecological system, which consequently harms our physical and moral health. Faced with this ecological problem, it is necessary to resort to nature, which has always been a source of inspiration for mankind, both in solving his problems and in satisfying his needs. This return is done through biomimicry considered as an approach guided by the need to meet a technological or organizational need. It pushes the Man to be inspired by the living, the biological, known by its diversity and its wealth, to lead to the stakes of the sustainable development (social, environmental and economic) by bringing him advantageous solutions in terms of technology, comfort, economy and aesthetics. In fact, in recent years, and because of the ecological crisis, many works and researches of innovation on biomimicry have been carried out on a global scale. These works show a remarkable rapprochement in the approach of some physicists and chemists with the modes of functioning of the living. All these researches are explained by the fact that biomimicry is currently considered as the advantageous solution that ensures sustainability. The biomimetic approach starts from the imitation of the living because the nature offers enough materials and functions. But to be able to copy a system, we must already understand how it works. This shows that in biomimicry, we note an approach of three steps: Imitation of the form, imitation of the process and imitation of the strategy of ecosystems and their interrelations. We aim then to analyze the complex properties of materials and biological processes of the living and to divert them to industrial purposes. It is important to say that in nature, there is no waste, everything is to be recycled. Every living species is a library that inspires Man to produce an object. Moreover, the analysis of living materials shows that these materials have particular qualities.
