I neglected to mention that we need this by 6/15 or we cannot guarantee that we will discuss your entry.
BTW for those in the exhibition, while time precludes us from giving a detailed description of your demo, we would like to mention your exhibit, so if you can forward me an image of your robot and a one-line name/description we'll try and fit it in. Thanks! - Ron
