Mark Tilden's workshop is like nothing else at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, perched high up on a mesa northwest of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Writer Paul Trachtman crossed the threshold of Tilden's lab, in search of the robots that may well inhabit our future mechanical devices that someday may be colonizing Mars or the Moon.... more

Solarbotics Ltd
http://www.solarbotics.com/

Solarbotics is committed to offering kits, parts and information on the expanding field of BEAM Robotics. BEAM Robotics was invented by Mark Tilden in 1989. He believes that simple electronics, combined with robust mechanics (and quite often solar power) produce very capable robots.

Solarbotics has a mandate to make BEAM Robotics accessible to all levels of enthusiasts. From the teaching the basics with a Symet or SolarSpeeder, to the intermediate PhotoPopper Photovore, or even the most advanced two and four-legged ScoutWalker kits - we've got a project to interest you!... more
