We
are a small self-financed operation. We're extremely resourceful,
but brains, good looks and ability won't buy us parts
or keep the electricity on. We are seeking visionary sponsors
who recognize the vast potential of autonomous vehicles
and want to be a part of this emerging industry. We are
seeking monetary funding as well as components and technical
assistance to help us build the best vehicle possible.
We are hoping to find individuals and companies who enthusiastically
want to be involved and who would like to make a difference
in developing autonomous technology. Here's what we can
offer your company:
High
Visibility
--
This will be a very high profile event. Several documentaries
are underway, as well as continuing press and other national
media coverage. The volume of publicity will only increase
as race day approaches. We will use all media coverage
to promote our team and our sponsors to the fullest extent
possible, be it with signage on the vehicle, website links,
or other promotional tools.
Increase
Sales Opportunities --
We feature sponsored products we use in our technical
documentation, or in selected photo opportunities or interviews.
You may directly benefit by impressive bragging rights
for ad copy, and increased sales opportunities.
Be
A Part of the Future, Now
-- The participants of the race and the companies sponsoring
them will enjoy a big head start in this emerging field.
We can provide real world, relevant field-testing of the
products we use, to help you identify ideas and markets
for new products so you come out the winner.
The
Checkered Flag
--
We are out to win on all fronts. But win or lose, the
efforts of the team and its partners will be noticed.
We have considerable product development experience. As
we apply affordable, reliable and practical methods against
the impressive resources of our competition, the products
we deploy in the field will be recognized as a potent
blend of low tech "down-and-dirty," as well
as high-tech "lean and mean". After the race,
we plan to continue working with our partners as we develop
and promote next-generation autonomous vehicles for the
commercial market using techniques and experience gained
during this race.
If any of this stirs your imagination then we urge you
to contact us. By getting involved, you are not only participating
in a groundbreaking event, you are helping to further
the field of robotics and its impact on our lives. This
competition is also an inspiration to those who still
believe in American ingenuity, and that motivated individuals
can make a difference. We can certainly use your help,
and we will return the favor any way we can. We know this
will turn out to be a fun, positive experience for all
involved, and just the beginning of a larger unexplored
frontier. |
