Currently, a study carried out at the University of Trento takes inspiration from dandelions to create new engineered materials. The air-trapping ability of dandelion clocks immersed in water has been quantified, for the first time, in the laboratory. The breakthrough opens the door for the creation of new and sophisticated devices and technologies that could be utilized in an extensive range of applications, for instance, to make materials or devices that retain air bubbles underwater.
