Carson, Calif.—March 3, 2008 -- OWI Inc. is celebrating 30 years of success in 2008 as a world leader in advanced audio systems.

Attendees are welcome to visit the OWI Booth # 0520 to see the educational, solar-powered OWI® Solar Robotic kits, robotic arm and bugs. The OWI infrared, wireless classroom audio systems and other audio enhancement products will be on display as well.

"Our RobotiKit', science, and mini solar kit line are fun products that teach the basics of robotics, electronics, and alternative energy principles. The kits provide a fun project of creating a solar powered race car, hopping frog, frightened grasshopper or more. Fun friendly characters and a better understanding of solar power make these kits the ultimate science project," remarked Craig Morioka, President of Owikit®.

OWI will also offer attendees a sneak peek of its state-of-the-art wireless infra-red classroom system. The system includes 2 or 4 in-ceiling speakers to enhance hearing for students located anywhere in the classroom. The wall-mounted system can control two infrared wireless microphones at the same time. It also provides a locking storage box for safe storage of the unit and microphones.

"Over 30 years of audio experience led to the development of the CRS-101 system. Recent studies prove students learn better when they can easily and consistently hear the teacher. Our CRS-101 infrared, wireless system can be easily customized to fit any room configuration," said Joseph Martinez, Vice President of OWI Inc.

RobotiKits target kids 8 and older and are priced from $11.95 to $17.95.
