January 10 - Coroware Announces CoroBot Upgrades and Options
New Hardware Options and Software Upgrades Facilitate More Powerful Applications
CoroWare, Inc. (OTC: COWI) announced new software upgrades and hardware options for the CoroBot® Classic and CoroBot Explorer product lines. These new capabilities give researchers, educators and engineers the ability to rapidly develop more powerful autonomous unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) applications.
The software upgrades include full Robotic Operating System (ROS) compatibility and an improved teleoperation application. ROS is an open source framework for creating robotic applications, and is rapidly becoming an industry standard. All of CoroWare's mobile robots are designed to be fully ROS compatible. Out of the box, the CoroBot product line features a teleoperation application that allows users to remotely pilot the robot and view output from the cameras and sensors, whether over a private network or over the Internet.
"Our customers are looking for platforms that take advantage of open platforms such as ROS," said Andrew Zager , robotics product marketing engineer at CoroWare. "In addition to the applications developed by CoroWare, researchers and educators have access to a extensive catalog of open source robotic applications such as mapping, image recognition and navigation."
CoroWare is also offering new hardware options to enhance the abilities of the CoroBot product line. Customers can now add a Microsoft Kinect® to any CoroBot either pre-installed with ROS or upgraded to support ROS. Microsoft Kinect gives users infrared imaging and depth perception to create real-time three dimensional maps. In addition, the stock CoroBot camera has been upgraded to support 1080p full HD video quality.
With the needs of field researchers in mind, CoroWare is also offering customers the option of ordering Lithium Ferrous Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. These higher performance batteries offer higher power density and faster charge rates than typical unmanned vehicle batteries.
These new CoroBot product line upgrades and options are available today. The CoroBot product line includes a one year factory warranty at no additional charge. Customers have the option of purchasing extended warranty and premium support plans. Customers should contact a CoroWare account representative or authorized reseller for corporate and educational pricing details.

January 26 - 1st Detect Announces the Delivery of Pre-Production Mini-Mass Spectrometers to Select Customers
1st Detect Corporation, a subsidiary of Astrotech Corporation (Nasdaq: ASTC), announces the delivery of pre-production mini-mass spectrometers to select customers for evaluation.
"After years of development, we are very proud to have leading analytical equipment vendors evaluating our mini-mass spectrometer," said Thomas B. Pickens III, Chairman of 1st Detect. "We believe 1st Detect's mini-mass spectrometer technology represents a breakthrough by delivering performance comparable to large laboratory mass spectrometers in a small and affordable instrument that can reach many applications that were never before possible. This is a major development milestone as 1st Detect is now transforming from its R&D phase to a market driven, commercially focused business enterprise."
The 1st Detect mini-mass spectrometer technology is capable of detecting trace levels of volatile compounds and has been developed for the security, industrial and research laboratory markets. We believe the technology platform is ideally suited for these applications, having been designed to provide highly accurate and rapid analysis and detection of very low concentrations of chemical compounds.
"I am extremely excited about the technology breakthroughs the 1st Detect team has innovated," added Mr. Pickens. "Our talented R&D team has spent years developing what we consider to be the best performing miniature mass spectrometer available. This product fulfills an unmet need in the chemical detection market by providing a true mini-mass spectrometer that is superior to the widely adopted ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) products."
The 1st Detect proprietary mini-mass spectrometry technology provides a broad and versatile platform that we plan to integrate with follow-on products optimized for the security and industrial markets including airports, border crossings, law enforcement, military uses, agricultural processing, refineries, chemical plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing, process control, water and wastewater treatment facilities.

January 25 - Cornell's Dr. Michael King to Present Findings on the Improved Efficiency of the Capture and Manipulation of Circulating Tumor Cells
NaturalNano's Halloysite Nanotubes Are Featured at Circulating Tumor Cell Conference in San Diego on February 2nd
NaturalNano, Inc. (OTCBB: NNAN) announced that Dr. Michael King of Cornell University will present at the CTC, Circulating Tumor Cell, Conference in San Diego, California on February 2 at 11:45 am (PST). Dr. King's presentation reports his recent work showing how thin coatings of naturally-forming Halloysite nanotubes can greatly improve the efficiency of CTC capture from blood samples under flow.
Dr. King, an Associate Professor of biomedical engineering at Cornell University, states "The capture of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood can be targeted more effectively by incorporation of Halloysite nanotubes (HNT) onto the surface of FLOW devices used to capture CTCs in blood." King continued, "The flow devices with HNT incorporated onto their surface were found to significantly enhance the naturally occurring CTC rolling mechanism. This allows those cells to be exposed to specific therapeutic agents or isolated and collected for diagnostic and research purposes."
James Wemett, NaturalNano CEO, said "We are pleased to have our HNT technology used in Dr. King's important work. Wemett continued, "Dr. King's work with HNT continues to build on our understanding of the potential role that HNT may play in Life Science applications. The use of HNT showed no harmful effect on cells, enabling greater efficiency in the capture of live cells ready for treatment or analysis."

Silver Dragon Resources Inc. (OTCBB: SDRG) (the "Company") announces that an initial deposit modeling resource estimate has been completed for the Company's Tin-Silver Polymetallic project located in Inner Mongolia, China in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
Located in north central Inner Mongolia, approximately 650 kilometers north of Beijing, the Laopandao Tin-Silver Polymetallic project is readily accessible along modern, inter-provincial, multi-lane highways, and secondary paved and gravel roads.
The report notes that tin-silver/lead-copper mineralization was discovered on the property during the 1970s. Subsequent prospecting, soil geochemical surveys, geological mapping, geophysical surveys, diamond drilling and underground exploration/development discovered two anomalous areas on the property referred to as Anomaly 95 and Anomaly 102. Over the ensuing four decades the majority of the exploration activity focused on Anomaly 95, which contains three mineralized zones designated as Zone I, Zone II and Zone III. Each Zone contains numerous parallel west northwesterly trending lenses ranging from 1m to 7m wide which have been traced along strike by trenching and diamond drilling for up to 300 metres.
