The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to bring biomimetic ideas to traditional architecture. This project consists of a development of a robust and innovative database to catalyze incorporating scientific concepts into designs for the built environment. This project will inspire the design of naturally resilient structures. This SBIR Phase I project proposes to develop an innovative sustainability tool that abstracts the knowledge of biology from scientific literature and makes it available to architects and designers such that the built environment sector can support biomimetic ideas implementable in terms of material availability and structural codes. The project will be organized by building challenge category, biome, and function. It will filter champion organisms that have already solved the specified function, and provide translated principles and images to explain the solution. The project will interpret, capture, store, and systematically distribute their translation of natural systems models for diverse application in the built environment.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个小型企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目的更广泛的影响/商业潜力是将仿生理念引入传统建筑。该项目包括开发一个强大而创新的数据库，以促进将科学概念融入建筑环境的设计中。这个项目将启发自然弹性结构的设计。这个SBIR一期项目建议开发一种创新的可持续性工具，从科学文献中提取生物学知识，并将其提供给建筑师和设计师，这样建筑环境部门就可以在材料可用性和结构规范方面支持可实施的仿生想法。该项目将按照建筑挑战类别、生物群落和功能进行组织。它将过滤已经解决指定功能的冠军生物，并提供翻译的原理和图像来解释解决方案。该项目将解释、捕获、存储和系统地分发他们对自然系统模型的翻译，以用于建筑环境中的各种应用。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
