SenseGlove R1
Engineered for seamless control of humanoid robotic hands, the SenseGlove R1 (formerly “Project Rembrandt”) blends active force-feedback, precise force control, millimeter-level accuracy in finger tracking, and vibrotactile feedback. The result: unmatched tactile awareness and enhanced imitation learning in tele-operation.
Key specifications
4DoF Active Force Feedback
1 kHz Sample Rate
Millimeter-level Accuracy in Finger Tracking
Unmatched control, realism, and adaptability for advanced robot operation and training
1. Active Force-Feedback with Real-Time Pressure Sensing
A high-speed 1kHz control loop renders the robot’s applied forces to the user controlling the robot hand. For example, when you gently pick up a fragile object, the glove instantly adjusts to replicate that delicate force, ensuring precision and safety. Real-time pressure sensing ensures dynamic responses to an object’s size, stiffness, and resistance, enhancing lifelike manipulation.
2. Millimeter-level Accuracy and Precision in Finger Tracking
The R1 delivers accurate, reliable finger tracking across all five fingers. Perform intricate tasks – like micro-component assembly or precise maintenance maneuvers – with confidence and ease.
3. Vibrotactile Feedback
Dynamic vibration patterns deliver immediate cues about contact location, texture, and intensity. Imagine feeling the difference between a smooth surface and a rough one, or receiving an instant alert as your virtual fingers interact with an object—all in real time.
Control dexterous robot hands like your own ones
Flexible Deployment
Use it standalone or mount it to a haptic arm—adaptable for any setup.
Effortless Data Collection
Utilise the power of imitation learning for robot grasping including force perception.
Seamless Platform Integration
Available with ROS and Python SDKs. Work with our team of experts to efficiently integrate R1 into your system.
Customisation opportunity
Customise your gloves, incorporating specific features and capabilities tailored to your goals and requirements.
