Dymon Robotics Launches World’s First High-Resolution Visuotactile Sensor and Dexterous Robotic Hand

Dymon Robotics Unveils World’s First High-Resolution Multi-Modal Tactile Sensor and Next-Gen Dexterous Robotic Hand

Dymon Robotics has officially launched a trio of groundbreaking products: the DM-Tac W, the DM-Hand1, and the DM-EXton. These releases mark a major leap in robotic tactile perception, human-machine interaction, and remote teleoperation, pushing the frontier of embodied AI systems.

The DM-Tac W is the world’s first multi-dimensional, high-resolution, high-frequency visuotactile sensor. Unlike conventional tactile sensors, it integrates a camera within the sensor module to capture deformations in an enclosed light field when an object contacts the surface. This data is then interpreted using proprietary algorithms to deliver dense and robust tactile feedback.

According to official specifications, the DM-Tac W features over 40,000 sensory units per square centimeter, vastly surpassing the 240 sensory units per square centimeter in human skin and outperforming current state-of-the-art tactile arrays by hundreds of times. This ultra-dense sensing array enables the DM-Tac W to perceive complex multi-modal information such as shape, texture, stiffness, slip, normal force, and shear force.

These capabilities empower robotic grippers and manipulators with human-like tactile sensitivity, making it possible to perform precise manipulation and adaptive interactions in dynamic and uncertain environments.

In parallel, Dymon also released DM-Hand1, a next-generation dexterous robotic hand with a human-inspired five-finger design and high degrees of freedom. Powered by hybrid force-position control algorithms, DM-Hand1 can execute delicate and accurate grasping operations.

A key innovation lies in its integration of the company’s proprietary millimeter-thin visuotactile sensors, a first in the global market. This breakthrough reduces the sensor thickness from several centimeters to just a few millimeters, significantly decreasing the finger thickness of the robotic hand and greatly enhancing its flexibility and applicability in constrained spaces.

Thanks to its rich multimodal tactile sensing, DM-Hand1 can accurately identify object properties like softness, texture, and compliance, as well as contact patterns such as force distribution and contact events. These features enable adaptive grip force control, gentle manipulation of fragile items, and precision assembly of small components, supporting a wide range of industrial and research applications.

Finally, the DM-EXton, a portable wearable teleoperation data acquisition system, complements the tactile ecosystem by enabling real-time, natural human-to-robot control through motion and force sensing.

With this trio of innovations, Dymon Robotics is setting new global benchmarks in tactile perception and robotic dexterity, bringing robots closer than ever to human-level manipulation and sensory capabilities.
