Changingtek Robotics Launches High-Precision Tactile Sensing Data Collection Hand, Uhand
The compact Uhand captures synchronized visual, pose, force and tactile data with 30 Hz capture and 0.1 N force sensing, the company said.
On Sunday, May 31, 2026, Changingtek Robotics Technology launched its high-precision tactile data collection hand globally. The device captures synchronized multimodal datasets to support embodied intelligent robot research and precision manipulation tasks.
Weighing 600 grams with four hours of battery runtime, the portable hardware enables extended field deployment. It integrates a highly sensitive tactile array with 2.34 taxels per square centimetre and 0.1 N sensing precision.
Supporting force detection ranging from 0 to 160 N, the Changingtek Hand achieves XYZ positioning accuracy of 0.7 mm and pose precision up to 0.01. It utilizes 30 Hz high-frame-rate data capture for real-time processing.
Powered by proprietary software, the hand supports seamless compatibility across mainstream robot control frameworks. This enables synchronous collection of visual, pose, and force datasets for direct use in AI model training and algorithm iteration.
Changingtek Robotics provides intelligent grasping solutions for aerospace and automotive manufacturing sectors. These tools cut operational costs and improve flexibility, closing the full data loop required to drive global uptake of advanced robotic end-effector technologies.
