BEAM head circuits The whole enchillada... So far, this site just hosts a smattering of head circuits: Heads based on Ben Hitchcock's FRED SE Wilf Rigter's PowerSmart Head designs The Schmitt Comparitor head by Wilf Rigter & Martin Keen   Meanwhile, here are links to circuits elsewhere: Laser Head 1.0 by Frans Storms 1 page, 3 images / 69 KBytes inline 74AC86-based solar head; lights a high-intensity LED when locked on a bright light. Solar Power Smart Head by Wilf Rigter 1 page, 1 image / 33 KBytes inline Very power-efficient solarized head Phototropic Suspended Bicore by Ian Bernstein 1 page, 1 image / 142 KBytes inline Not as efficient as the Solar Power Smart Head, but uses fewer components; occupies part of one page (Ian's circuit collection). I haven't built a head based on this circuit, but have been told that the photodiodes in Ian's diagram are shown incorrectly in parallel, and instead should be wired in series (a la ----|>|---|<|-----). For more information... The Bestiary pages on heads start here.
