Team Conveyer, Inc.
It would be futile to deny that some new ideas are more revolutionary than others, that certain conceptions start a long chain of consequential improvements.
John Jewkes, The Sources of Invention 1958
Every once in a while, a new idea that can flip convention on its head appears seemingly out of nowhere - a new way to do old things is thought of.
Team Conveyer, Inc. (TCI), a California startup, is a pure-intellectual-property-play with a transformative new idea. The idea has use cases in both clinical laboratories and warehouse and fulfillment operations. These are massive industries where the adoption of TCI's technology can generate astronomical value through its royalty revenues.
TCI comes with a catch! We are committed to using 50% of TCI's value to fund charities that are the culmination of the career of our founder, Dr. John Gorman. Dr. Gorman has dedicated his life to funding WIRhE, an organization that he helped create with the goal of eradicating Rh disease worldwide. There is nothing more important to us than saving the lives of the hundreds of thousands of innocent babies that are lost to this otherwise curable disease. In addition to WIRhE, we would also like to make charitable donations to the Columbia University Irving Medical Center and NYU Langone.
In virtually all conveyancing systems today, items are stowed on fixed shelves, picked, moved and placed as needed, a modus operandi unchanged since the invention of agriculture 10,000 years ago. Advancements in robotics have improved picking and placing, but robots are prone to error and come with high maintenance costs.
With TCI patented technology, items are stored on ‘intelligent’ moving shelves, that can stop and start precisely, cooperating to deliver or sort items of interest to specified stations. This involves simple autonomous one-axis, bi-directional, pre-scheduled, movement of items of interest on conveyers that run on fixed tracks to fixed stations – and this enables simple one-axis transfer of items, conveyer to station, conveyer to conveyer. Individual passenger items are identified solely by their location and time on their conveyer, eliminating the need for repetitive scanning.
TCI has invetned a new clinical lab automation platform called Dark Lab Automation ("DLA"). DLA will fundamentally revolutionize the way we build and run clinical labs. DLA is a smarter, faster, and cheaper solution. Why haven't we seen other people try to solve this problem? Despite attempts to improve automated robotics in labs, the industry is stuck on a pick-and-place paradigm whereby robotic arms jostle liquid samples and reagents from place to place. The major designers of current lab automation (The Big 4) are risk-averse megaliths who operate a veritable oligopoly.
In the rapidly growing ~$250B clinical lab industry TCI technology will increase productivity by orders of magnitude. By 2030 we predict that 60% of the revenues of the clinical lab industry worldwide, ~$200B, will be generated by clinical lab tests performed on TCT automated instruments.
There are many instances where a transformative idea fails to gain traction until a powerful institution oversees its implementation. We believe we can kickstart the adoption of TCI's DLA technology by making a deal with one or many of the largest clincial lab companies in the world: Roche, Beckman Coulter, Abbott, and Siemens ("The Big 4"). In exchange for shares in TCI, The Big 4 will announce the adoption of Dark Lab Automation technology. As shareholders of TCI, this will afford them tremendous value through the revenue stream of royalties on TCI patents. This presents and incredible opportunity for The Big 4 to create significant economic value for themselves.
At TCI we are committed to safeguarding our intellectual property as we advance our technologies and patents. We believe we are positioned on the cusp of exceptional value creation for both our stakeholders and the broader industry. Above all, we look forward to realizing our charitable mission of funding WIRhE and fulfilling Dr. Gorman's lifelong dream.
The files below outline a path to monetization of Team Conveyer technology
From the Stone Age to modern times:, civilization has used the same basic method for storing surpluses: carry, stow, pick, carry (CSPC) - the age old practice of stowing items on fixed shelves and picking selected items from them as they were needed.
The transition from current micro and macro conveyancing systems to Team Conveyer Technology (TC), from PULL to PUSH, over the next decade will create a vast business ecosystem that did not exist before. It will create opportunities for creation of several kinds of very profitable new businesses, such as the following A to G type companies.
Manufacturers of TC equipment sign a royalty free License Agreement. End user clinical labs or supply chain companies pay a royalty based on each item moved or task accomplished.
Our unique company structure enables an instant exit strategy. But, before you consider and evaluate the proposed exit strategy as outlined in this paper, it is necessary to have a firm understanding of Team Conveyer Technology, ‘TC inside’, and believe that it’s chance of revolutionizing automation in many logistic systems is realistic.
Team Conveyer Technology (TC) is our patent pending invention that will create unprecedented efficiencies in conveyance systems of all kinds, micro: diagnostic instruments, and macro:warehouse storage, supply chains, and manufacturing assembly. TC opens a whole new direction for innovation in these ecosystems. TCIP has filed for intellectual property rights worldwide.
It is critical for TCIP for companies to know that the throughput of automated clinical lab instruments can be increased >100x that of current automated instruments by employing Team Conveyer Technology (TC). This achievement distinguishes TC from any robotic instrument system that ever existed before. Such high-throughput is enabled because TC is particularly amenable to employing production line technique.
Place Time Identification (PTID), is an essential feature of a Team Conveyer system (TC) whereby items stored on teams of conveyors rather than on fixed shelves are identified by a Place Time ID (PTID) tag. PTID means that the processor that controls a TC transport logistics system ‘knows’ what it is has to move, where it is on which conveyer, where to move it to and when, how and even why, for what purpose, to move it. PTID is the heart of our IP. It will enable unprecedented control of scheduling movements in a supply chain end to end, truly transformative improvements in transport logistics systems of the future.
It is critical for TCIP for people to know that the throughput of automated diagnostic instruments can be multiplied >100xby employing Team Conveyer Technology (TC). This high throughput is enabled because TC is particularly amenable to employing production line methods. And TC production line methods can be applied to all seven species of analytic methods resulting in speeding up test-throughput rates of clinical laboratories >100 times.
This white paper discusses a truly remarkable opportunity for application of Team Conveyer Technology (TC) to Cov-2 qPCR testing. A TC approach to a high-throughput concept automated TC PCR instrument is described below that could perform >500,000 RT-qPCR tests/day, compared with the state-of-the-art automated PCR instrument, Rhoche’s Cobas 8800, ~1500 RT-qPCR tests/day
Team Conveyer Technology (TC) is our patent pending invention that will create unprecedented efficiencies in conveyance systems of all kinds, micro: diagnostic instruments, and macro:warehouse storage, supply chains, and manufacturing assembly. TC opens a whole new direction for innovation in these ecosystems. Here is a working list of applications ripe for taking advantage of TC:
