Experience robots and AI up close

Our robotic hands help people in everyday situations to perform repetitive and dangerous tasks safely and reliably. The robot learns using artificial intelligence (AI) by observing and imitating the behavior of its trainer. See our robot in action, learn more about working with robots and AI.

Today, industrial robots can practically only be used in closed-off areas where the workspace is built to be static and unchanging. This limitation arises from two major constraints: First robots largely still use simple, task-specific two-or three- finger grippers to interact with the real world. Secondly, programming robots to perform tasks is tedious and takes enormous engineering effort. Add to that the fact that programming is only suitable for a structured, static environment and changes in the environment often require reprogramming.

We address these challenges with our approach as follows: To solve the problem of task-specific grippers, we designed our solution based on the human hand, to be as versatile and robust. To address the problem of complexity in programming these robots, we made our robotic hand setup controllable inuitively by using a camera-based hand-tracking system.

Our goal is to build the most practical hands that can perform a wide variety of manipulation tasks in unstructured environments with human-level dexterity. An intuitive and easy-to-use interface makes this possible. Come to our booth and learn about our robotic hand, which we use in AI research to solve tasks that are far too complex for conventional robots with simple grippers.
