| One of the simplest BEAM components is the nv neuron, which consists of a capacitor, resistor and inverter arranged so they form a 1st order high pass filter with it's output inverted. In BEAM robotics, circuits are considered active when the output is low - this circuit will output low pulses for a constant time (set by the values of the capacitor and resistor) when the input changes voltage. | One of the simplest BEAM components is the nv neuron, which consists of a capacitor, resistor and inverter arranged so they form a 1st order high pass filter with it's output inverted.
