<p>Solar-powered and self-motile&#8230; a cross between a <a href="http://www.genomicon.com/tag/bristlebots/">bristlebot</a> and a <a href="http://www.genomicon.com/2009/04/beambots-on-etsy/">beambot</a>&#8230; and a chocolate-teapot I suspect, but it&#8217;s a journey, not a destination afterall.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A bunch of <a href="http://www.genomicon.com/2009/04/beambots/">BEAM bots</a> have turned up on Etsy&#8230; </p>

<p>All solar powered, some light-seeking etc. I think these things have a potential that hasn&#8217;t quite found itself yet &#8211; though probably more as an appropriate-tech thing &#8211; given that the price of microprocessors is going through the floor.</p>
<p>I quite like the way the components become part of the design &#8211; there&#8217;s an honesty in allowing the materials to shine through.</p>
<p>Mind you, there&#8217;s a lot to be said for going off on a mad tangent as well&#8230;</p>
