PROXY STATEMENT
---------------
Introduction
This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies
on behalf of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of HelpMate Robotics Inc., a
Connecticut corporation (the "Company"). Proxies are being solicited for use at
the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on
Thursday, May 20, 1999, at the offices of the Company, 22 Shelter Rock Lane,
Danbury, Connecticut 06810, and for all adjournments and postponements thereof
(the "Annual Meeting").
Only shareholders of record (the "Shareholders") as of the close of business on
April 9, 1999, the record date for the Annual Meeting (the "Record Date"), will
be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of
business on the Record Date, 14,201,402 shares of the Company's Common Stock
were outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of
Common Stock is entitled to one vote.
The Notice of Annual Meeting, this proxy statement, and the accompanying proxy
are first being mailed on or about April 16, 1999 to shareholders of record as
of the close of business on the Record Date.
You can ensure that your shares are voted at the Annual Meeting by signing,
dating and promptly returning the enclosed proxy in the envelope provided.
Sending in a signed proxy will not affect your right to attend the meeting and
vote in person. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by
notifying the Company's Transfer Agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
40 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005 in writing or by executing a subsequent
proxy, which revokes any previously executed proxy or by voting in person at the
meeting.
The Company's principal executive offices are located at 22 Shelter Rock Lane,
Danbury, Connecticut, 06810.
Voting of Proxies and Outstanding Voting Securities
Proxies will be voted as specified by the shareholders. Where specific choices
are not indicated, proxies will be voted for proposals 1 and 2. Abstentions,
broker non-votes or in the case of proposal 1 only, instructions on the
accompanying proxy card to withhold authority to vote for the nominated
directors will result in such proposal receiving fewer votes. An affirmative
vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock entitled to vote and present, in person or by properly executed proxy,
will be required to approve both proposals. The total shares issued and
outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date was 14,201,402 shares of
Common Stock, each share of which is entitled to one vote. If no direction is
made proxies will be voted for the election of directors as set forth below, and
in favor of the ratification of the appointment of the independent auditors.
<PAGE>
Information Concerning Solicitation and Voting
In order to constitute a quorum for the conduct of business at the Annual
Meeting, a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote
at the Annual Meeting must be represented at the Annual Meeting. If a share is
represented for any purpose at the Annual Meeting, it is deemed to be present
for all other matters. Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions or
broker non-votes will be counted as shares that are present and entitled to vote
for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Abstentions, broker
non-votes and votes withheld are not treated as votes cast at the Annual
Meeting, but will have the effect of a negative vote on Proposals 1 and 2
however, since the Company's certificate of incorporation requires the
affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the Annual Meeting
and entitled to vote in order to approve an action.
Shareholders are encouraged to specify the way they wish to vote their shares by
marking the appropriate boxes on the enclosed proxy. All shares represented by
each properly executed, unrevoked proxy received in time for the Annual Meeting
will be voted in the manner specified therein. If the manner of voting with
respect to a proposal is not specified in an executed proxy received by the
Company, the proxy will be voted FOR approval of such proposal. Sending in a
signed proxy will not affect a Shareholder's right to attend the meeting and
vote in person. Any Shareholder giving a proxy in the form accompanying this
proxy statement has the power to revoke the proxy prior to its exercise. A proxy
may be revoked at any time before it is exercised by the Shareholder's
delivering a written instrument of revocation to the Company's Transfer Agent,
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 40 Wall Street, New York, New York
10005. A Shareholder may also revoke the proxy by presenting at the Annual
Meeting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or time than the date or time
of the proxy being revoked. Finally, a proxy may be revoked if the Shareholder
is present at the Annual Meeting and elects to vote in person. Mere attendance
at the Annual Meeting will not serve to revoke a proxy.
The expense of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. The solicitation
will be by mail. Expenses include reimbursement paid to brokerage firms and
others for their expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation material regarding
the Annual Meeting to beneficial owners of the Company's Common Stock. Further
solicitation of proxies may be made by telephone or oral communication with
Shareholders by directors, officers and other employees of the Company who will
not receive additional compensation for the solicitation.
The Board does not intend to present any matters for a vote at the meeting
except for Proposals 1 and 2 described in this Proxy Statement. The persons
named in the proxy will, however, have discretionary voting authority regarding
any other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.
Information About Certain Beneficial Owners of Common Stock

officer, each director and nominee for director, each person known to be a
beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Common Stock of the Corporation and all

Proposal 2. Appointment of Auditors
The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the ratification of the appointment
of auditors which is designated as proposal No. 2 on the enclosed proxy card.
On the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, the
Board has appointed Arthur Andersen LLP as auditors for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999, subject to ratification by Shareholders. Arthur Andersen LLP
has audited the Company's financial statements for 1998 and 1997.
Representatives of Arthur Anderson LLP are expected to attend the 1999 Annual
Meeting, where they will have the opportunity to make a statement if they wish
to do so and will be available to answer appropriate questions from the
Shareholders.
If the foregoing proposal is not approved at the meeting, or if prior to the
2000 Annual Meeting, Arthur Andersen LLP shall decline to act or otherwise
become incapable of acting, or if its engagement shall otherwise be discontinued
by the Board of Directors, then in any such case, the Board of Directors will
appoint other independent auditors whose engagement for any period subsequent to
the 1999 Annual Meeting will be subject to ratification by the Shareholders at
the 2000 Annual Meeting.
In order to reduce its auditing expenses, on January 21, 1998, the Company
appointed Arthur Andersen LLP as auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1997 and terminated the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as its auditors for
that year. Ernst & Young LLP had audited the Company's financial statements
since 1985.The reports of Ernst & Young on the financial statements of the
Company as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 did not contain an adverse opinion or a
disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or accounting principles. In connection with the audits of the Company's
financial statements for each of the two years ended December 31, 1996 and in
the subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young on
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures, which disagreements, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst &Young would have caused it to make
reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports. The
decision to change accountants was ratified by the Audit Committee and by the
Board of Directors in May 1998.
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 2.
<PAGE>
Solicitation of Proxies
The cost of soliciting proxies for the 1999 Annual Meeting will be borne by the
Company. In addition to solicitation by mail, solicitations may also be made by
personal interview, telecopier, telegram and telephone. The Company will use the
services of American Stock Transfer & Trust Company to assist in soliciting
proxies, and expects to pay a nominal fee for such services. Arrangements will
be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to
send proxies and proxy material to their principals. Consistent with the
Company's confidential voting procedure, directors, officers and other regular
employees of the Company, as yet undesigned, may also request the return of
proxies by telephone, telecopier, telegram or in person.
Shareholder Proposals
As more fully explained in the Company's Bylaws, shareholder proposals intended
to be presented at and Annual Meeting, including proposals for the nomination of
directors, removal of directors, amendments to the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws or the repeal of a bylaw, must be received in writing by
the Company's Secretary, no later than 50 days in advance of the annual meeting
of shareholders, or, if fewer than 50 days notice or prior public disclosure of
the meeting date is given or made by the Company, not later than the seventh day
after which notice was mailed or such public disclosure was made.
Incorporation by Reference
Footnote 6 to the Company's Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1998 contained in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1998 has been incorporated by reference into this Proxy Statement
under the heading "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."
Other Business
The Board does not intend to bring any matters before the Annual Meeting other
than those set forth in the accompanying notice. The Board of Directors does not
know of any matter other than those described in this proxy statement that will
be presented for action at the meeting. If other matters properly come before
