LaserMotive gets a new look

LaserMotive has a new website – a new, spiffy look to present to the world.  The home page includes several photos and a drawing (I’ve never heard of a ‘quadrocopter‘ before)  They also have a new slogan / catchphrase;

Power on a Beam of Light

I like it.

For those who don’t know, Team LaserMotive was the winner of $900,000 in the 2009 Climber / Power-Beaming competition – part of the Space Elevator Games held at the NASA Dryden facility in the Mojave desert.

With their winnings, they’ve now hired some people full time (chronicled here).  Their blog has several new entries, including this one discussing their first White Paper – using lasers to power UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles).

Make sure you check it out!
