In BEAM robotics, a radiotrope is a robot that reacts to radio frequency sources. Literally, "radio turning," this term is generally (if somewhat inaccurately) applied to radio frequency seeking robots. More accurately, radiotropes can either seek (radiophiles) or flee (radiophobes) sources of radio waves.[citation needed]
