Several years ago, Culture Care, Inc. won an SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) grant to develop a robot that would help automate the process of changing petri dishes used in medical research. The problem itself was real: it would take hours to maintain bacteria samples by hand, using very precious resources. Culture Care's solution to automate this process became hindered as well. The company they worked with took over a year to produce a prototype - that didn't work! Frustrated and running out of money, Culture Care turned to KinTech in February of 2000. Within four months and for far less money, KinTech made the working prototype seen at right. It runs quickly, quietly and smoothly.

Working with KinTech saved Culture Care both tremendous time and money, providing them with a far superior product. Now Culture Care hopes to move to Phase III of the SBIR program and send a refined version of this robot to market.
