We've talked about bicore nervous net BEAM circuits in the pages of MAKE. This two motor walker uses four "neurons" in its brain and is therefore called a quadcore. It's basically two linked, oscillating signals that create a four-legged walking gate over the two motors. Two photodiodes make the walker light-seeking (or.. um .. shadow avoiding).
