We have been chosen as one of the companies world wide to be featured in the "World Robotics 2011 Service Robotics" publication on 9-01-2011. The IFR Statistical Department, which is hosted by the VDMA Robotics + Automation association in Frankfurt, Germany publishes the studies "World Robotics" every year http://www.worldrobotics.org/. This unique publication presents comprehensive global statistics on service robotics, market analysis, case studies and international research strategies of service robotics. The study is evaluated in cooperation with their partner the Fraunhofer IPA, in Stuttgart, Germany. Many technological companies world wide, submit reports in the hope of being chosen by a panel of experts to be featured in the publication. Our designated coverage consists of 4 pages of text and images, including a description of our New Leipzig School project in North Dakota, USA. If you would like to order a printed copy, it is available directly from the publisher at; http://www.worldrobotics.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=12 for $1221.36 US dollars.
We are invited to present at the Kshitji 2012, a technology international conference in India. We are commonly invited to present our research & development at international technological conferences. One example of this is that we recently were especially sought and invited to present our technologies at Kshitji 2012, a technology based international conference in India http://www.ktj.in/#home. It is the largest of its kind in Asia and draws over 50,000 people in technological fields. Those who have received this same invitation in the past are Noble Prize winners, NASA officials and others of world wide recognition. We are building a prototype Telepresence operated robot that will do our presentation at the event. The invitation includes travel, lodging and equipment transportation expenses. The conference is held at the Indian Institute of Kharagpur http://www.iitkgp.ac.in/.

2007 THEA Award for Outstanding Museum Touring Exhibitions We designed and built the two 3-Finger Robot Arms for the traveling show "Robots; the Interactive Exhibition", that is based on the movie "Robots" by 20th Century Fox and Blue Sky Studio. This show has been on continuous tour throughout the U.S., with great reviews including the "New York Times". Our two 3-Finger Robot Arms have proved to be extremely durable under this severe public and transportation use. It will continue it's tour until 2012. The show was produced by the Becker Group. Its national tour is made possible by the Ford Motor Company Fund. The exhibition received the 2007 THEA Award for Outstanding Museum Touring Exhibitions. The press has commented that our part of the exhibition is by far the most popular exhibit presented.
"The Last Mimzy" Movie We designed and built the two 3-Finger Robot Arms (which appeared in several scenes with the scientist of the future), for the 2007 sci-fi family movie "The Last Mimzy", a Newline Cinema, Avery Pix, and Hanna Rachael Production, film.
United Nations "World Robotics" Publications We are recognized by the UN as a substantial contributor in the area of robotics and featured in the United Nations "World Robotics" publications for the years 2004, 2005 and 2006, by the Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and the IFR; International Federation of Robotics.

2004 NASA - Emhart Technologies, "Create the Future" Contest Our research and development was an awarded winner in the 2004 NASA - Emhart Technologies, "Create the Future" contest. NASA Tech Briefs magazine and Emhart Technologies, a global leader in the design and creation of assembly technologies, sponsored the event. Our submission, an Advanced Bandage that, (1) serves as a substitute for stitches, (2) eliminates skin damage from I.V. adhesive and regular bandages, and (3) provides emergency closure of wounds, was in the area of medical products. It was judged by a panel of the worlds finest engineers and industrialists for scientific functionality, product necessity and practical marketability. Our work was published in the NASA Tech Briefs magazine.
2000 Discover Awards, for Technological Innovation Our Research & Development was ranked in the top ten of our chosen field for the International - "2000 Discover Awards for Technological Innovation". As a result we earned an Award and Invitation to demonstrate our prototypes at the "Technology Expo" at EPCOT, in Disney World, in June of 2000. This event was hosted by Discover Magazine and includes some of the world's most innovative technologies.
CWUAAT 2003; Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology Our research & development was chosen to be published by and demonstrated before Cambridge University's international conference on assistive technology, " CWUAAT", (Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology) in March of 2002. The event is an unique opportunity to present technologies that assist disabled individuals. CWUAAT 2003; Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology.

Environmental & Humanitarian Work MOSAA, a 501-C 3 nonprofit community oriented organization, was founded by John Siegel and Victoria Croasdell, the co-owners of MRISAR, in December of 1995. In October of 2004 it's name was changed to "Education For Prosperity" when it merged with a charitable project called "The Friends of Pichon", which was formed by David Smith and Pierre Balthazar, in 1999 to assist the village of Pichon, Haiti, to overcome severe poverty conditions. It functions as a humanitarian and environmental service to the community and the world. Technology Donations: working through the nonprofit that we founded, we have rebuilt and donated many computers to abuse shelters, and troubled and low income families.
Papahanaumokuakea, Marine National Monument Mokupāpapa: Discovery Center for Hawaii's Remote Coral Reefs, a new Discovery Center opened on the bay front in Hilo, Hawaii. The center was constructed to interpret the natural science, culture, and history of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands and surrounding marine environment. Interactive displays, engaging three-dimensional models, and immersive theater allow the visitor to experience the wonder and majesty of this special ocean region. A 2,500-gallon salt-water aquarium provides a habitat for some of the fishes from the NWHI reefs. Next to the aquarium, in a small alcove is a mock-up of Hawaii Undersea Research Laboratory's Pisces V submersible. Using working robot arms that MRISAR, built in the year 2000, visitors are still experiencing what it might be like as a researcher descending into the dark depths of the ocean. This exhibit is a major hit with the kids, as well as adults. To read more of this article click on the following link; http://papahanaumokuakea.gov/education/center.html
