Sponsors are sought for a research project involving small mobile robots

leading to a Robot Soccer competition in Singapore at the end of this
year.

The project involves building 6 autonomous mobile robots at a cost of
about $500 each. The first robot is already under construction and will
be ready for basic demonstrations in about two weeks. Financial
assistance is needed to offset the cost of the robots, some test
equipment, and travel expenses to international conferences in July and
November. Any amount of assistance will be gratefully received,
however, contributions of $500 or more will secure full naming and
promotional rights to at least one Robot.

In return, the sponsor will have the opportunity to receive exposure at
international conferences and exhibitions, and will be acknowledged in
subsequent publications that involve the sponsored robots.

If your company is interested in promoting itself through support of
this state of the art project, then for more information please contact:
