Robolit will be at IAAPA
Robolit will be attending International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Expo 2014 in Orlando, FL. IAAPA represents over 4300 amusement industry members, located in over 97 countries worldwide spanning fields such as Amusement Parks, Theme Parks, Family Entertainment Centers (FEC’s), Arcades, Museums, Water parks, Aquariums, Science Centers, Zoos, Resorts and Casinos, along with many leading industry Equipment Manufacturers, Distributors and Operators, and various industry Suppliers and Service Providers.
At this event Robolit will be investigating opportunities and strategic partnerships for robotic technologies and know-how gathered in our core competency field of search and rescue robotics. We strongly believe that deeply interactive and physical theme park systems can be brought to life employing sensing and actuation capabilities developed in the US&R robotics field.
