Evolution Robotics, a leading provider of next-generation robotics
solutions, announced a strategic alliance with WowWee RoboticsT, the
number one consumer entertainment robotics company, to integrate
Evolution's technologies for vision and navigation into the next
generation of WowWee products. WowWee's award-winning RoboraptorT and
RobosapienT are among the best-selling robots on the market, with
several million robots sold to date. Evolution Robotics works with
leading consumer brands to make their robots smarter using
breakthrough solutions in vision and autonomous navigation.
WowWee will incorporate two of Evolution's unique technologies in
their line of products: ViPRT and NorthstarT. ViPR (Visual Pattern
Recognition) is the "gold standard" in visual recognition technology,
and provides reliable and fast recognition of patterns, objects, and
locations in realistic environments. Northstar, known as "Indoor
GPS," is the world's lowest-cost solution for position-awareness for
consumer robots, and enables robots to navigate autonomously and
intelligently. Both of these technologies will be used by WowWee as
they continue to create breakthrough robotic companions and
entertainment products.
