RoadNarrows LLC is the first domestic US distributor for CoroWare's CoroBot product line. CoroWare designs and develops robotics software and hardware supporting both Microsoft Robotics Studio and Linux-based systems and provides related integration services.

CoroWare's flagship product is the CoroBot.

CoroWare's CoroBot is a mobile robot that includes an on-board PC-class processor and hard-disk, wheel encoders, a color camera, and an optional four degrees-of-freedom gripper arm with sensors. CoroBot was created to minimize the complexity of robot development by providing a ready-to-use robot platform. Think of it as a "PC on wheels". By combining a powerful PC-class platform with a robust, object-oriented software development system, the CoroBot platform empowers rapid deployment and development of robotics solutions. CoroBot assists the robotics developer by having additional payload mounting space, extra USB and other PC ports, sensors and communication devices.

"The CoroBot product line fills a much-needed niche for research and academic robots. Many of our customers have been asking for an affordable, mobile platform supporting a PC-class processor and a standard interface. By supporting both Linux with the open-source software Player/Stage, and Windows XP with Microsoft Robotics Studio, the CoroBot line provides a powerful platform for robotics development as well as education and related research", said Kim Wheeler, CEO and co-founder of RoadNarrows LLC. "Furthermore the CoroBot can be pre-implemented with software that’s compliant with JAUS reference architecture version 3.2 (Joint Architecture for Unmanned Systems) at an affordable price point for our military customer". JAUS is a DoD standard in the Joint Ground Robotics Enterprise (JGRE) to promote interoperability of unmanned systems.
