XOR and still transistor less

A project log for LIGHT LOGIC - HIC SVNT DRACONES

Using a LED/LDR pair to form inverting Photonic logic gates. The entire Boolean logic set handled by resistors and diodes! Who'd'a thunk

I am working on a educational display to showcase Light Logic and how it works.

This is a combination of NAND, OR and AND gates to create a working XOR gate. And as the same for all Light Logic gates, transistors are not to be found. Just diodes and resistors. Power leads are under the paper to better show the logic wiring.
