QUAN: Could Google Android Tablets Surpass the Apple iPad in Robotics Applications?



  QUAN: Could Google Android Tablets Surpass the Apple iPad in Robotics
  Applications?

Business Wire

HOUSTON -- August 13, 2012

With the stunning interface, processing and connectivity capabilities of the
Apple (AAPL) iPad pushing robotics in incredible new directions, Quantum
International Corp. (OTCBB: QUAN) is also exploring emerging technologies
leveraging similar capabilities from Apple’s greatest rivals—devices running
Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) Android OS.

Apple’s iPhone might lay claim to being the world’s first touchscreen
smartphone, but Google owns the bragging right to the first smartphone to have
assisted NASA astronauts on a space flight mission. Samsung’s Nexus One
Android OS devices controlled spherical robots called SPHERES that were
launched into space aboard the space shuttle Atlantis.

Once deployed, SPHERES assisted astronauts in surveying routine maintenance
work in orbit.

There are promising new Android robotics innovations at work closer to home,
as well. Surveyor recently debuted an open-source Android control interface
for robots such as its SRV-1. Now, users can control Android
smartphone-powered robots remotely.

“Apple has garnered most of the headlines, but developers are quietly making
astonishing robotics breatkthroughs using Android devices, as well,” said
Quantum CEO Robert Federowicz. “Because Google Android is an open-source
platform, it’s possible that Android tablets and smartphones could soon
surpass Apple devices as the tech of choice among roboticists. Quantum
International is hard at work seeking out the next great Android-powered
robots ready for large-scale commercialization.”

and Dover Corp. (NYSE: DOV).
