Auto-sniping patents awarded to Weapons Software
(Colorado Springs, CO) Rovation’s Weapons Software division has been issued a suite of firmware patents for flash-based, EEPROM-updatable high-speed sniping firmware.
Military sources claim sniping accuracy is nearly doubled over existing techniques, and reportedly have been as excited as Rovation’s own field testing teams.
No human interference
Flash updates are devised, implemented, and tested with no human interference. Public domain genetic algorithms for sniping strategies are combined with proprietary field testing on common rodents, with stellar results.
Few human casualties in early tests
While animal rights groups have understandably been upset about sniping tests, families of two Rovation employees mortally wounded during earlier tests have settled amicably with the firm, citing national security as a reason for their silence, and are said to be grateful for the charitable foundations Rovation established in the former employee’s names. Animal rights activists have had no comment about the human fatalities.
Rovation Wins Biskland Contract
(Folsom, CA) Rovation Industries is proud to announce that it has won the Biskland excavation contract. While Rovation has done a number of archaeological excavations in its over 100-year history, its Biskland association is less well known. Founder Zoran Rovanović was probably of Bisk descent, so in a very real sense Rovation is going home.
Two square miles
With almost two square miles to excavate, Rovation has its work cut out for the resourceful archaeology team, many of whom also have diplomatic backgrounds.
Automated assistance required
The Bisk site will require automated assistance, and Rovation droids have proven themselves in the Mideast time and again.
This disputed and mountainous region contains many midden sites in hard-to-access locations, so use of UAVs is not out of the question. Rovation’s UAVs have been adapted for civilian use before, and many updates have been made since the Ramses project was begun almost four years ago.
