>I seem to have an expectation that I deserve free money That would be some of the most expensive money of all, and most subject to loss. >to run a science experiment That's the entire thing my business was based on, using tonnes of electronics and instrumentation it was very hardware-oriented. That was my life's work beforehand anyway, I knew I could make money the same old way if I didn't come up with enough new stuff to be able to monetize a solid 1% of it. I still wouldn't use "other peoples' money" aka capital because the people who wanted to put up money, it was their retirement funds and stuff. You can't be a capitalist without capital so I've always been a mere entrepreneur and used my own money. I was wondering what the hardware was but looks like you've got robot-dependent software, if you're not competeing in hardware, and your SDK applies to a robot from only one company, talk to them. It your technology applies to more than one company, talk to them all.
