The Bicore is one of the easiest BEAM circuits to free form and can be built in 10 to 60 minutes depending on your skill level. I would recommend you read the whole tutorial first, this will GREATLY lower the chance of you making a mistake.

One of the best things about BEAM robotics is that you can get started without buying any bits at all-- you can just go rooting around for "techno-trash". These are some good sources of salvage

At the heart of most solar-powered robots is a circuit called the solar engine (variously called Solar Engines, solarengines, SEs; a.k.a,relaxation oscillators). The purpose of a solar engine is to act like a power "savings account" -- a small trickle of incoming energy is saved up until a useable amount is stored. This stored energy is then released in a burst, in order to drive some useful (if only sporadic and incremental) work.

3star beam neuron nv robot theory

shared by York Jong on 26 May 07 - Cached

We assume that the slowly changing waveform at the Nv input produces a single output transition when it crosses the Nv switching threshold. This is accomplished by using a 74HC14 or similar CMOS Schmitt trigger. When 74HC04 or 74HC240s are used for Nv inverters some nasty oscillations occur during switching which makes these inverters unsuitable for most Nv networks greater than 2 Nv in series.
