Seekur will be the first robotic platform designed to patrol in, out, and around storage facilities and outbuildings, climbing ramps and small steps. Its unique omni-directional wheels turn sideways in place, allowing Seekur to maneuver with ease within tight spaces, such as parking garages. The robot is built to weather extremes of snow, sand, cold, and heat. Unlike other outdoor robots, Seekur will be totally unmanned, though it can be teleoperated, if desired. Other outdoor robots are converted vehicles, with added electronics to run unmanned. For more information visit www.activrobots.com/ROBOTS/Seekur.html

New life can be granted to any low-end lonworks node module with a technology and the set of tools, provided by a firm from Russia.
The software technology provides an optimized runtime core for running a specially processed (compiled) functional block diagram (FBD) on a Neuron Chip. The diagram itself is drawn and compiled by a handy FBD environment tool, and downloaded via lonworks network with an LNS plugin.
Such parameters as the speed of block execution and allowed maximum size of a diagam beat any building automation tasks requirements.
Additional information and software demo is accessible at www.petkish.narod.ru.
