Light Following Robot, By : Chiu Yun Fang First off, if your new to BEAM and haven't had much experience with electronics, go to Solarbotics and buy the Photopopper 4.2 kit. It is an excellent kit with all the parts you'll need, a high output solarcell, new pager motors, omni-directional feeler switches, in-depth and informative documentation and a cute little PCB. It's well worth the money! Here's a couple pics to wet your appetite The BEAM photovore is an autonomous robot that is entirely powered by solar energy. It is phototropic which means it searches out the brightest source of light which, in turn, gives it more power...pretty smart eh? The first step to building a photovore is to get the schematic.
