Biomimetic Microsystem A biomimetic microsystem is exactly what it sounds like: A biomimetic system developed at a tiny scale. Rather than replicating the functions and/or form of an organic structure at the scale of an organ or limb, a biomimetic microsystem is a lab-on-a-chip device intended to replicate the mechanical and biochemical functions of blood vessels and tissues.

CB2, which stands for Child-robot with Biomimetic Body, is a new android-based attempt at developing an artificial intelligence with social skills. The robot is essentially a bald, white baby, and it learns in much the same way - by watching expressions change on its 'mother's' face, and teaching its own neural net to cluster them together. 
 Alife research carried out using a robotic fish and a swarm of biological fish in a water tunnel, has concluded that biomimetic movement is key to social interaction with animals of all types; not just humans. If it swims like a leader of the shoal, it is the leader of the shoal.
