Problem
Robotic systems in manufacturing and logistics often lack reliable tactile feedback because existing touch sensors are fragile, expensive, and difficult to integrate across different grippers and hands. This limits the ability of robots to perform dexterous, human‑like manipulation and hampers large‑scale data collection for training AI models.
Solution
Haptica offers washable, scalable touch sensors that can be mounted on a variety of robotic end‑effectors, from simple grippers to multi‑finger hands. The sensors are plug‑and‑play and connect to an integrated software pipeline that captures high‑fidelity tactile data in real time and provides tools for post‑processing and AI model training. By simplifying hardware integration and delivering a complete data workflow, Haptica enables robotics companies and AI labs to gather large volumes of tactile data in real industrial environments, accelerating the development of more adaptable and precise manipulation capabilities.
Target Audience
Primary customers are robotics manufacturers, automation integrators, and AI research labs that require robust tactile sensing for dexterous manipulation in production and logistics settings.
