Problem
Robots and automated systems lack the nuanced tactile sensing capabilities of humans, limiting their ability to perform complex tasks requiring fine motor skills, environmental awareness, and adaptability to varying conditions. Existing tactile sensors often provide insufficient resolution and fail to capture the multi-dimensional nature of touch, hindering effective AI training and object recognition.
Solution
Sensobright Industries develops and manufactures high-resolution tactile sensing technology that surpasses human touch sensitivity. Their patented sensors, exceeding 300 receptors per square centimeter, enable robots and devices to perceive touch across eight dimensions, including temperature, force, pressure, and shear. This enhanced tactile feedback allows for more precise interaction with the environment, reduces AI training time through improved data input, and facilitates instant object recognition via a hybrid library of image processing, temperature, and touch-sensing data. Sensobright's technology can process millions of individual receptors simultaneously and transfer data to a computer through a single USB cable, minimizing system and integration costs.
Target Audience
Sensobright's primary customers are in the robotics, automotive, surgical robotics, medical devices, consumer electronics, and avionics industries, as well as researchers and developers working on AI and automation.
