Message-ID: <56849@aerospace.AERO.ORG> Date: 29 Aug 89 15:25:26 GMT Sender: news@aerospace.aero.org Organization: The Aerospace Corporation Lines: 25 Greetings! Anyone who has any Model I hardware that they wish to dispose of, Take Note! Since I've been using the things for dedicated hardware controllers (robotics & all that), I would be glad to acquire working OR nonworking Model Is. Since I'm living under a relatively tight budget, I can offer only $20 for working machines and $5 for nonworking ones, plus postage of course. ALSO: Soon to be available - SDI, the Smoker's Departure Instigator. This device does IR-band scans of regions to detect anomalies (such as lit cigarettes) and directs a stream of water until the IR signature of the region normalizes. Plans will be available at the time of completion. (Tech Note: the region size is very coarse: 7.5 degrees per scan segment. The cigarette is not the only thing that will be watered, in other words. You will need to protect yourself from a soaked smoker also...) ___Samuel___ /-------------------------------------------------------------------\ | I claim and accept sole responsibility for the above.
