We at CyberOptics are very saddened by the recent loss of our Founder and Chairman, Dr. Steve Case. Steve was a brilliant engineer, whose many inventions and technological breakthroughs not only established the foundaton for CyberOptics' success, but also helped transform the surface mount electronics industry. More importantly, Steve was a wonderful friend and colleague to everyone who worked with him.

Steve established a strong and capable management team, and we will do what he would want, and that is to continue aggressively pursuing the ideas and promising opportunities he helped set in motion.
