The State Library of NSW purchased two Robots for $10,000 each. New Age Robots stated that the technology and software was developed solely by them. In fact another company "A I Bend and Extend Pty Ltd" had invented the software applying to the extendable arm and had not been paid or consulted by New Age Robots. The State Library which does not wish to damage its reputation with the public and wishes to know whether they have an argument under the Australian Consumer Law to void the contract with New Age Robots.
