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.
