We believe we’re the first robotics company to demonstrate a robot peeling an apple with dual dexterous human-like hands. This breakthrough closes a key gap in robotics, achieving bimanual, contact-rich manipulation and moving far beyond the limits of simple grippers. 🧵↓ Today’s AI models (VLMs) are excellent at perception but struggle with action. Controlling high-degree-of-freedom hands for tasks like this is incredibly complex, and precise finger-level teleoperation is nearly impossible for humans. Our first step was a shared-autonomy system: rather than controlling every finger, the operator triggers pre-learned skills like a “rotate apple or tennis ball” primitive via a keyboard press or pedal. This makes scalable data collection and RL training possible. How does the AI manage this? We created "MoDE-VLA" (Mixture of Dexterous Experts). It fuses vision, language, force, and touch data by using a team of specialist "experts," making control in high-dimensional spaces stable and effective. The combination of these two innovations allows for seamless, contact-rich manipulation. The human provides high-level guidance, and the robot executes the complex in-hand coordination required. This work paves the way for robots that can safely handle delicate tasks in human environments.

Who can say no to a humanoid robot that can actually feel a hug? 🤖 JQ Industries just built a fabric-based electronic skin for Unitree G1 — covering the torso, hands, and feet. This is not about appearance. It’s about giving robots real tactile sensing and pressure feedback. According to the company, the system includes tactile gloves, upper-body skin, and foot sensors. That means the robot can feel contact through its hands, detect pressure across its body, and use foot feedback to adjust balance. This is the missing layer in most humanoids. Vision alone can’t handle physical interaction. Robots need touch to grip safely, react to humans, and stay stable in real-world environments. JQ says its fiber sensors can detect forces as low as 0.01N, handle up to 3500kPa, and bend below 0.1mm radius. The system can also integrate with Isaac Sim, making tactile data usable for training and deployment. Unitree G1 is already built for manipulation and control — this adds the sensing layer it lacked. JQ says it’s now working with multiple humanoid companies, with some systems already shipping at scale. This is what happens when robots stop just seeing the world — and start physically feeling it.

Touch alone isn’t enough. 🖐️ For robotics, tactile intelligence truly levels up when touch gains spatial meaning. At #ICRA2026, we dove into the core concept behind SaTA: Spatially-anchored Tactile Awareness for robust, dexterous manipulation. Read it here: The challenge is fundamental: a robot shouldn’t just register a touch, it needs to understand exactly where that contact occurs relative to its fingers, joints, and overall hand structure. This is the missing link that turns raw data into precise, real-time adjustments during manipulation. Why does this matter? Because the most complex part of any manipulation task happens when vision is at its least reliable, that final millimeter before insertion, sliding, gripping, or fine-tuning. At Sharpa, this is exactly why we’re building tactile hands and tactile AI in tandem. 🚀 #Sharpa #Robotics #EmbodiedAI #TactileIntelligence #ICRA2026 #DexterousManipulation 📷

Feeling what a robot feels is becoming real! 🫰 Fluid Reality just ran its first full end-to-end touch teleoperation system, and the demo shows why high-resolution haptics might be the missing piece in robot control. A 22 mm fingertip display with 32 independently actuated “bubbles” was mapped directly to tactile sensors on a robot hand. 🫧 Three fingers streamed real-time touch data robot → human, giving the operator actual contact feedback instead of waving their hands blind, like most teleop systems today. It’s still early, but this is a real step toward dexterous ops and high-quality data for training Physical AI systems. Companies involved: Samsung Electronics, Alt-Bionics, Inc. (the robot hand), MANUS™ (hand tracking), and Sensible Robotics (fingertip sensors) Touch isn’t a nice-to-have in robotics. It’s the difference between manipulation that works in the real world P.S. Guess how many touch receptors we humans, have in our hand! :) ~~ ♻ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

A policy that teaches robot hands to touch things the way humans do... not just grab and move, but feel and adjust in real time. Robot manipulation research often stops at picking up objects and placing them. CGP goes further: it handles tasks like opening jars, flipping objects in-hand, wiping dishes, and grasping fragile eggs, the kind of dexterous, contact-rich skills that require constant micro-adjustments based on what the fingers are actually feeling. The robot doesn't just see what it's doing; it predicts what contact should feel like at each step, then checks whether reality matches the prediction. If a finger is slipping, the policy knows before the object drops. Works on real robot hands (both 4-finger and 5-finger designs) with tactile sensors embedded in the fingertips Robust to visual distractions! The robot keeps flipping a box correctly even when the camera view is disrupted, because it's grounding decisions in touch, not just vision. Baseline policies without contact grounding fail in predictable ways: slipping mid-task, incomplete motions, loss of grasp, CGP avoids these This is a meaningful step toward robots that can handle the physical world with the kind of reliable, adaptive grip that humans take for granted. Relevant for manufacturing, logistics, assistive robotics, and anywhere fragile or irregular objects need to be handled carefully. Published at RSS 2026, developed with Meta Reality Labs Research.

Teaching robots to perform dexterous manipulation tasks currently requires teleoperation, which limits demonstration quality, speed, and scalability. Instead, why not use human videos? The problem is that a human hand isn’t a robot hand, so data must be retargeted using simulation to resolve issues like collisions and interpenetration when controlling the hand. In VideoManip, Hongyi Chen and co-authors built a system to solve this problem, taking in RGB videos of humans performing manipulation tasks and using them to create accurate simulations with which to learn robot policies.
