Subject: [alt-beam] BeamBot


I am planning to build a very lifelike beam robot, and to accomplish this, I
will probably need a microcontroller(gasp!). If my bot is still
solarpowered(for most of the time- if battery power is low, it will access the
reserves) will it be considered beam?
Why do I need a microcontroller?
1. to detect water- It'll be a turtle
2. to open its shell when it is too hot.
3. to to manage the solar power

Many thanks, Will
