From Robotic exoskeleton maker Sarcos announces SPAC plans on TechCrunch:
This morning, however, Utah-based Sarcos Robotics announced plans to board the SPAC train, courtesy of Rotor Acquisition Corp.
The deal could potentially value the robotic exoskeleton maker and blank check co. at a combined $1.3 billion, along with a potential $281 million earn-out.
Sarcos is exploring an interesting business model. From Sarcos Guardian XO Exoskeleton at CES 2020 on YouTube:
The question is how much does it cost?
We do a robot-as-a-service model. We priced it at the equivalent of a $25 an hour and coins in the United States. We maintain it, we keep it operating, if it doesn't work we don't get paid.
