in an extremely short description BEAM robotics try to create robots made from extremely simple circuits with absolutely no programming.

Generally speaking almost all of these robots use solar power as a source of energy as this school of robotics is geared towards it. There are however exceptions and a couple robot types that are inducted as honorary BEAM robots.
