The Apollo IP system, which consists of four (4) granted patents
and one (1) pending, is a revolutionary radio frequency-based computer vision
technology that, upon full development, can provide autonomous vehicles with
superior perception and mapping capabilities in all lighting conditions and
weather. The Apollo IP system uses radio waves to transmit and receive data
from objects in the environment. This data is then processed by advanced
artificial intelligence algorithms to create a 3D image of the surrounding
area. The Apollo IP system is able to detect objects at longer distances and
with greater accuracy than traditional optical sensors, cameras and LiDAR. It
is also not affected by lighting conditions or weather, making it ideal for
autonomous vehicles that operate in a variety of environments. It may enable
BNIX to provide its customers with the most advanced autonomous vehicle
perception technology available.
"We
are excited to enter this agreement with Bannix through Tokenize," said
Mansour Khatib, CEO of GBT Technologies. "We believe this technology is a
potential game-changer for the autonomous vehicle industry. It is our goal to
allow BNIX customers to develop safer, more reliable autonomous vehicles that
can operate in any environment."
"We are excited to announce our acquisition agreement with
Tokenize. We believe this strategic acquisition will allow us to partner with
multiple integrators of autonomous vehicles. We believe it will also enhance
our Business Combination partner Evie Autonomous Group's exciting,
patent-pending, AI enhanced radar vision system that allows vehicles to
perceive their environment, using 4D radar and algorithms to intelligently
interpret the sensor data and unlock tremendous value and position us as a
leader in the autonomous technology space. Together, we will drive the future
of mobility and revolutionize the way people experience transportation,"
said Doug Davis, CEO of Bannix Acquisition Corp.
Added Steven Lake, founder and CEO of Evie Autonomous Group,
"The time is now to deliver world-class automation, robotics, and AI to
off-highway environments. This combination will accelerate our progress and
bring our proven solutions and technology to the attention of partners around
the globe. I am excited to work with Bannix to improve productivity,
profitability, and safety in multiple sectors."
The
Apollo system asset purchase is expected to close in the fourth quarter of
2023. The purchase price for the Apollo system is $42.5 million, which will be
paid in shares of BNIX Series A Preferred Stock. Tokenize agreed with BNIX that
in no event the consideration will be less than $30,000,000 which then may give
Tokenize the option to cancel the agreement.
No assurances can be made that the proposed transactions will be
consummated on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated, or at all. Any
transaction would be subject to board and shareholder approval of both
companies, regulatory approvals and other customary conditions. Moreover, there
is no guarantee that the BNIX, Evie Autonomous Group, GBT Technologies and/or
Tokenize will be successful in researching, developing or implementing this
system. There is no guarantee that the parties will be successful in any or all
of these critical steps.
