…How is leasing different from robotics as a service (RaaS)? Sanborne: The financial benefits are different from that model. The downside to the vendors is that they don't get $5 million in revenue recognition; they have to collect that money over time. If we lease, the vendors get the money in advance, which is better for them. A lot of those robotics-as-a-service deals aren't fixed-term but month to month or semiannual. That may be more flexible for the end user, but it's less revenue guaranteed for the vendor. For end users, we can finance RaaS for baseline usage. It's a…
