Very nice visualisation of sexual dimorphism in arthropod jump performance 😎
Our latest paper on the jump kinematics and choreography in the Oz Splendid Peacock spider. We filmed & analysed locomotory jumps in male & female spiders. The males are incredibly light - measuring just 2mg - and oh they can jump! Videos in the thread. Open Access - read here: tinyurl.com/4bnpz9tz

Are you interested in learning about how engineering and physics can be applied to study the motions of #plants, #invertebrates, and #animals? Here's a non-exhaustive list of Comparative Biomechanists to get started! 🦋 🐟 🦎 🌿 🧪

Check out the beautiful light arts in our little city.
Featuring an animation of bird flight that you get going by running inside the installation. #Kinematics / #biomechanics meets arts.

Beautiful light art at the Shining Lights festival in #Greifswald - with several biological motifs 🤩 Very nice idea to make the cold and dark season a little brighter - should become a regular event!
One installation features the #kinematics of #birdflight and it's interactive 🤯😊

Eight legs to bring a little joy to your timeline (skyline?). Zoropsis spinimana, aka the “Nosferatu spider.” Isn’t she so cute? 🥹
Thank you to @wolffspider.bsky.social and your lab @evoimec.bsky.social for a warm welcome in Greifswald! Please follow them and their amazing work!
