Braintech to team with BAE Systems, PaR Systems, and Carnegie Mellon on Phase I proposal for Automated Weapons Assembly Project

WASHINGTON -- Braintech, Inc., (OTC BB: BRHI) will partner with BAE Systems, PaR Systems, and Carnegie Mellon University as a team participant for the Office of Naval Research Automated Weapons Assembly (AWA) project. The team has eight months to complete Phase I, a period in which they will demonstrate feasibility of a system concept through analysis, modeling and simulation as well as identify ship impacts and risks associated with the project.

The AWA project objective is to unpack weapon components from storage containers and safely assemble them onboard ships in high sea situations. The Navy currently requires 500 to 1000 square feet of deck space for the time-consuming, labor-intensive and ergonomically challenging task of manual assembly. Automation of the process is expected to reduce the required manpower by 25 percent, maximize available stowage space and reduce the vulnerability of weapon staging areas.

"Braintech's expertise in Vision Guided Robotics and years of successful development and implementation in the automotive industry stand to provide the Navy with a great technological advantage," said Rick Weidinger, CEO Braintech, Inc. "We have focused the last few months on spreading the company into the Government and Defense space and are pleased to be working on such a dynamic project. I see this as the first of many more Government projects to come."

"We have been intrigued by Braintech's technologies in the past and look forward to working together to develop leading edge Vision Guided Robotic solutions in pursuit of a Phase II award." stated Albert Sturm, CTO PaR Systems

Adam Marsh, BAE Systems Staff Engineer and AWA Program Manager added, "Leveraging each of our unique strengths, I believe we have assembled the team best equipped to meet the ONR's objectives for this important project."

Two other teams involving Foster-Miller and General Dynamics Robotic Systems will compete to be the single selected team following Phase I. Phase II will see the selected team design, fabricate and test the technology towards implementation on all emerging and retrofitted existing air-capable naval platforms.
