Watch as Sharpa North assembles a computer autonomously! From precise positioning to screwing and wire clipping, North executes complex, contact-rich tasks powered by tactile feedback. Dexterous hands + tactile AI are what make real-world task execution possible. This is the shift from simple automation to real-world robotics. #SharpaRobotics

Here’s the windmill assembly demo we showed at CES 2026 — the one no one saw coming. North executes a fully autonomous, long-horizon dexterous sequence with sustained hand–eye–tactile coordination and assembly-level precision enabled by tactile feedback. It’s also robust to disturbance: you can reposition the objects, and North will still identify them and recover the task. This is powered by CraftNet (VTLA) — using tactile feedback to continuously fine-tune the last-millimeter interaction, enabling reliable execution across 30+ steps.

Robotics just hit a dexterity milestone 🤯! Sharpa Robotics demonstrated autonomous dual-hand apple peeling using its new MoDE-VLA system. Using human-like dexterous hands with tactile sensing, the robot can feel contact and adjust its grip while rotating and peeling the apple. While the system achieved 30% success, the 73% peel completion rate shows robots are starting to master the fine, contact-rich manipulation needed for real world tasks.

Tactile feedback is one of the most important modalities in manipulation, but has been underutilized in dexterous hands. T-Dex is a framework for learning dexterous policies from tactile play data, beating vision and torque-based methods by 1.7x. 🧵👇

Three demos showing SharpaWave’s fine manipulation under high-fidelity teleoperation. Task No.1: putting on a trash bag. With teleoperation and tactile feedback, it finds the rim, opens it, and wraps it neatly — even on a slippery, deformable object. #Sharpa #SharpaWave #Teleoperation #Tactile #DexterousHand

Jeff Bezos tries the Tactile Telerobot. The Tactile Telerobot is a haptic telerobotic system capable of transmitting realistic touch feedback to an operator located anywhere in the world. Developed through a joint collaboration between Shadow Robot Company, HaptX, and SynTouch, the project’s initial research and development was funded by All Nippon Airways. -- Robotics teams are challenged to turn human-like dexterity from theory into real-world systems. While dexterous manipulation promises major impact across industries, a gap remains between capability and deployment. Shadow Robot helps close this gap through a dexterity-first, structured engagement model that transforms ideas into prototypes and scalable solutions. The "Trusted Hands: Engineering Collaboration with Shadow Robot" whitepaper highlights how collaboration and repeatable frameworks enable organizations to overcome barriers and advance dexterous robotics in new domains.

More beautiful robot hands. This one from Sharpa The hand uses what they call a Dynamic Tactile Array, meaning vision and touch work together and their SaTA (Spatially-anchored Tactile Awareness) algorithm. Each fingertip includes a mini camera and 1,000+ tactile pixels, hitting 0.005N pressure sensitivity. With 22 DOF and 6D force sensing, it can do everything from eggs to tools.

Most of today's AI can see the world, but it doesn’t **feel** it. Capturing the sense of touch is crucial for dexterous robotic manipulation, user modeling, and understanding physical interactions. Introducing OpenTouch: bringing full-hand tactile sensing into real-world AI🖐️ OpenTouch is collected in-the-wild using tactile sensing gloves, hand pose tracking gloves, and egocentric glasses. It includes: • 5 hours of real-world data, • 3 hours densely annotated contact-rich interactions, • 2,900 curated interaction clips, • across 800 objects, 14 environments, and 29 grasp types. all open at:
