QUAN: The Robotics Age Has Already Begun
Emerging robotics company Quantum International Corp. plans to capitalize on the quiet rise of the robots by delivering powerful new innovations to an international market.
HOUSTON, Aug 03, 2012 -- Though robotics is commonly viewed as a trend for the future, more robots than many realize are already hard at work alongside humans every day. Emerging robotics company Quantum International Corp. QUAN -13.60% plans to capitalize on the quiet rise of the robots by delivering powerful new innovations to an international market.
"The truth is, there are already robots all around us," said Quantum CEO Robert Federowicz. "They go unnoticed because they don't look like the robots in the movies. Most people are aware of the automatons that law enforcement uses to defuse dangerous situations and limit risk to our first responders, but not everyone realizes that Redbox movie dispensers are robots. The automatic carwash at the gas station is a sophisticated robot."
"Rather than replacing humans, robots are going to work right alongside us every day," he added.
Quantum is currently evaluating several new target robotics companies for potential acquisition and joint venture. With simple, powerful new technologies such as the Apple AAPL +1.43% iPad pushing robotics in incredible new directions, Quantum is making plans to profit from the incredible new wave of robotics innovations currently in development around the world.
The company is in the midst of conducting due diligence toward a definitive agreement with the prestigious Industrial Research Institute for Automation and Measurements (PIAP) in Warsaw, Poland. PIAP is on the cutting edge of European robotics innovation, and the institute is working on many exciting robotics projects Quantum believes could be ripe for commercialization.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
