REDMOND, WA -- 07/01/08 --
CoroWare Technologies, a wholly owned
subsidiary of CoroWare, Inc. (OTCBB: CROE), announced pricing and
availability of CoroWare ClassPack for Microsoft Robotics Studio (CoroWare
ClassPack), a simulation software package that complements its CoroBot
mobile robot product line.
Combined with CoroWare's CoroBot, ClassPack is an affordable and effective
robotics solution for teaching and research. By using the CoroWare
ClassPack services, students can write robotics applications that will run
both in simulation and on a real CoroBot. ClassPack features a classroom
environment which allows the robot to encounter common objects found in an
office or classroom. An easy-to-use control panel interface allows for
remote control of the CoroBot.
"Simulation is the perfect tool for educators and researchers since they
can realistically model any environment without the pains and costs
involved with creating that environment," said Sara Morgan, CoroWare
Robotic Software Engineer, and author of "Programming Microsoft Robotics
Studio." "Students and researchers can experiment with a lower-cost
version of CoroBot in the simulation environment, and then run their
application on a real CoroBot in the classroom or lab."
CoroWare plans to make CoroWare ClassPack generally available at the end of
June 2008 with two licensing options. An unlimited license will allow
ClassPack to be installed and run on a single computer with no expiration
date for a suggested retail price of $299 USD. A limited license will allow
ClassPack to be installed on a single computer for the duration of a class
term for a suggested retail price of $99 USD. Volume discounts for CoroWare
ClassPack pricing will be available upon request for educational
institutions.
"We are excited to see CoroWare continue to build upon its expertise in
robotics simulation and its line of products," said Dan Kara, industry
analyst and president of Robotics Trends. "We believe the introduction of
new products to the market like CoroWare ClassPack will further drive the
adoption of robotics at universities and colleges worldwide."
