White Box Robotics Becomes Gold Sponsor of Robonexus

Pittsburgh, PA - July 31, 2004 - White Box Robotics, Inc. has announced that they have become a Gold Sponsor of RoboNexus, scheduled October 21-23, 2004 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, CA. Their newly re-engineered 912 PC-BOT will be showcased in preparation for its much anticipated first quarter 2005 world-wide release. “These New 9 Series Robots take center stage with their style and quality” states Thomas Burick, President and Chief Technical Officer of White Box Robotics. “The only limit to their functionality is the imagination and innovation of their owners!” Burick continued.

The 912 PC-BOT features advanced capabilities such as vision based navigation and object recognition. It is expected that the “bare bones” 912 unit will retail for less than $1,000, with WBR extending a special pre-release pricing of $699 for the first 1,000 pre-orders received through their website www.whiteboxrobotics.com August 15th to December 15th 2004. These visually stunning robots are very easy to build and maintain, assembling like an industry standard PC”. “If you can assemble a PC, you can build the 912, states Burick. The 912 is the synergistic link that will inspire both PC and Robotics enthusiasts alike.
