Study Spotlight

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

Touchlab is leading a critical research effort in the £57M ARIA Robot Dexterity Programme. Learn how Principal Investigator Dr. Vasilis Mitrakos and our team are developing GRIT, a modular, quantum tunnelling-based e-skin, to finally give robots the human-like sense of touch they need to achieve full dexterity in challenging, real-world tasks.
