Provide Humanoid Robots with the Sense of Touch – World’s Smallest F/T Sensor
6-axis force/torque (F/T) measurement at the fingertips enables a new level of manipulation capabilities for humanoid robots. The precise measurement within the end-effector deliver reliable and precise data to enable robots to achieve a human like sense of touch.
Resense HEX8, the smallest F/T sensor is now available for purchase. With a diameter of just 8.4 mm, the HEX8 delivers exceptional precision and performance in systems where space is limited but sensitivity is critical.
Make them feel – Precision F/T Measurement for Multi-Purpose Robots
The HEX8 sensor provides highly accurate force and torque measurements along six axes (x, y, z, and their corresponding rotational axes). Despite its small size, it offers an accurate measurement of less than 10 mN (1g), capturing the finest nuances in force and torque.
This makes the HEX8 the ideal sensor for integrating into humanoid robot fingertips, where it can provide critical feedback on grip strength, object interaction, and delicate manipulations. With the ability to measure even the slightest changes in force, the HEX8 allows robots to make real-time adjustments in their actions, improving both safety and performance in a variety of applications.
In addition to other sensing technologies, such as cameras or tactile sensors, the HEX8 improves the handling of delicate objects, simplifying and enhancing tasks. This empowers humanoid robots to perform with greater versatility, further establishing their potential as multi-purpose robots.

HEX8 Miniature F/T Sensor for Humanoid Robots – Now available
The HEX8 is now available for purchase, offering a powerful solution for force/torque measurement in
humanoid robotics. Its small form factor and high accuracy make it ideal for applications requiring precise tactile feedback at the fingertips. By providing the essential feedback needed for fine-tuned manipulation, it opens up new possibilities for humanoid robots to interact with their environment.
