Our BEAM-builder friend Harold Ilano sent us details about his latest project, a palm-sized bot called the Trooper. It utilizes four mini servos, six 74AC240 chips, five LDRs (Light-Dependent Resistors), two touch whiskers, a cellphone Li-ion battery pack, some perf board, and lots of paper clips, shrink tubing, and wire to create a light-seeking, random-wander robot with a low-voltage monitor and plenty of LBLs (Little Blinking Lights). Great job, Harold! Can’t wait to see the video clips.
