Big Art's Collection of B.E.A.M.* BOTS

* [ BEAM robotics is the brain child of Mark W. Tilden who is currently working at "Los Alamos National Laboratory" in Los Alamos, New Mexico, US. BEAM robotics as described in the BEAM rule book: A description of what aspects a roving robot creature could contain. BEAM is a acronym which stands for: Biology - Electronics - Aesthetics - Mechanics ]

Most of my solar engines are MILLER SE design and a few FRED SE when the bot doesn't weigh much, such as a flag spinner. I use surplus mini-cassette motors, surplus Mabuchi FF-030-PN DC motors for a buck each! 1381J's or 1381L's for the voltage low voltage detectors, 1.0uF tantalum caps(they are very small), 1n4001 or 1n914 diodes and surplus calculator solar cells. I also use two-part epoxy for sticking cells to motors, caps etc. I try not to solder directly to motors or capacitor bodies. Legs and antenna are made from paper clips which I 'paint' with a magic marker and I use colored heatshrink or colored electrical tape for the 'visual effects'.

Update May 2002 ...... New Stuff will be added on a regular basis!
