Study Spotlight

Optimize your robotic hardware with custom tactile sensing. Learn how Touchlab’s bespoke designs provide high-sensitivity, conformable touch for any geometry.

Discover how the SENSOLE project uses Touchlab’s tactile sensing to create a smart insole for peripheral neuropathy, gait monitoring, and neurostimulation.

Can haptic feedback bridge the gap in remote robotics? We put a Shadow Hand, Touchlab fingertips, and HaptX gloves to the test across 14 complex manipulation tasks. From medical procedures to daily chores, here are the lessons we learned about tactile precision, mechanical compliance, and the future of tele-dexterity.

Can a robot truly feel? In our latest case study, Touchlab explores the 12-week precision engineering journey to sensorise Prensilia’s MIA Hand. Facing intense space constraints and complex routing, our team integrated a 16-taxel array into a thumb structure validated to withstand 60N of force. Discover how we resolved mechanical conflicts to deliver a manufacturable, high-performance path to production for the next generation of tactile robotics.

At Touchlab, our Design Principles guide the ongoing development of durable tactile sensors built to meet and exceed human capabilities for telerobotic and autonomous applications. A key focus is creating a solution that is not only high-performing but also offers a long lifespan and unparalleled durability with an endless amount of contact cycles. This means when you use our sensors, you can trust that the measured contact interactions that trained your AI models and te
