Within the
emergency first responder vertical, communication and accountability are the
keys to safe and successful outcomes. Firefighters cite poor communication
and accountability as the top areas where improvements can increase their
safety, specifically when dealing with the 70% of the 1,129,250 firefighters
in the USA today that are volunteers.
Current methods
used to communicate location and track those firefighters are inefficient and
highly antiquated. Today's most common practice relies on a pair of dog tags;
one clipped to the fire truck and the other given to the accountability
officer and a hand held white board to sketch
where they believe everyone is based on their last radio check-in. This intermittent and user dependent
communication method leads to a myriad of issues, none greater than when
someone is believed to be safely out of the fire, but in fact they remain in
danger and no one knows.
FLARE was
designed by Firefighters for Firefighters, with input from over 100 fire
Chiefs surveyed in client discovery phase, 3AM is leveraging advanced
technologies and methods never seen before in tracking systems. 3AM
Innovations is pleased to announce it now has Non-Provisional Utility
Patent(s) filed as of January 17th. The company is now in full development with
this innovative software and hardware, which will reach the market in November
of this year.
calvIO, Inc. Jeff
McCormack, CEO
calvIO is creating a programmer-less environment
for configuring and maintaining the industrial robotic assembly cycle.
In time, our solution will lead to a 50% reduction in robot deployment and
maintenance costs and positions us to gain share in a $20 billion
market. Having recently exited a 2+ year incubation within Calvary
Robotics (Webster, NY) we are poised to fundamentally disrupt the industrial
automation and manufacturing marketplace.
calvIO's two modular robotic work cells
are controlled by an integrated software solution that uses a proprietary
tablet-based programming sequence to simplify robot configuration,
point-to-point programming, and fault recovery & logic. Other solutions to increase ease-of-use and
reduce barriers to entry are in development. We launched our products in late 2016 and have received orders from 3
large medical device manufacturers to-date.
calvIO is seeking investments to advance
our software architecture and launch a Robot-as-a-Service business
model. During the next 12 months, we
will begin development of novel artificial intelligence and machine learning
algorithms to discover schemas for rapid design, test, and
configuration. This development will
help us achieve our overall mission to reduce robot programming time from 300
hours to 5 minutes. The management
team collectively has 70+ years of software development, product management,
and artificial intelligence experience with companies such as IBM, Microsoft,
Boeing, and British Telecom.
