Ras Labs tests tactile gripper sensors at four customer trial sites
Ras Labs placed its electroactive-polymer tactile sensors at four customer trial sites and incorporated user feedback into product development.
Evidence notes
- Ras Labs placed its tactile-sensing technology at four customer trial sites and incorporated feedback into product development.
- Sensors embedded in electroactive polymer detect object shape, size and density to improve rigid-gripper handling of fragile items.
- The company added support for pneumatic and electric grippers, targeting variable picking with fewer tool changes.
Company context
Ras Labs develops compliant tactile-sensing components and control hardware for robotic manipulation.
