STMicroelectronics and Leopard Imaging have introduced an all-in-one multimodal vision module for humanoid and other advanced robotics systems.
Combining ST imaging, 3D scene-mapping, and motion sensing with the Nvidia Holoscan Sensor Bridge technology, the module integrates natively with Nvidia Jetson and Nvidia Isaac open robot development platform, simplifying and accelerating vision system design within the size, weight, and power constraints of humanoid robots.
“Humanoid robotics is moving beyond research projects and demonstrations to deliver powerful new machines for a wide range of roles in manufacturing and automotive factories, logistics and warehousing, as well as retail and customer service,” said Marco Angelici, vice-president of marketing and application for analog power MEMS and sensors, at STMicroelectronics.

Tesollo, a specialist in robotic grippers, has launched a new compact humanoid robotic hand designed to expand adoption of high-degree-of-freedom manipulation systems in humanoid robots.
The new device – called the DG-5F-S – is a miniaturized, lightweight version of the company’s existing DG-5F-M robotic hand and is intended to make advanced robotic manipulation easier to integrate into a wider range of humanoid platforms.
The robotic hand is built on a five-finger architecture with 20 degrees of freedom (DoF), enabling precise grasping and dexterous manipulation required for humanoid robots operating in complex environments.

When Nidec Drives Africa was approached to design a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Motor Control Centre (MCC) for the new “SL1A” Ship Loader at Dalrymple Bay Terminal in Mackay, Australia, the task was clear – but far from simple.
The goal was to modernise offshore operations nearly 4 kilometres out to sea, enhancing efficiency and embedding advanced redundancy into a system that had long relied on outdated technology. [Read more…] about Engineering at the edge: Nidec powering the future of ship loading at Dalrymple Bay
With manufacturers across North Texas struggling to hire and retain production workers, OnRobot will host the “Build your Automation Roadmap” event in Dallas on February 19th, bringing practical automation solutions directly to the region’s manufacturing community.
The free, in-person event is designed for manufacturers in sectors such as metal fabrication, CNC machining, electronics, aerospace, food & beverage, and industrial equipment manufacturing – industries that form the backbone of the DFW manufacturing economy and are among the hardest hit by ongoing labor shortages.

Robotiq has launched its TSF-85 tactile sensor fingertips for the 2F-85 Adaptive Gripper, giving Physical AI systems the sense of touch needed for real-world manipulation.
With integrated tactile sensing, Robotiq enables robots to not only see the world, but to feel, understand, and reliably interact with it at scale. The Tactile Sensor Fingertips for the 2F-85 gripper are available now.
Robots cannot learn the physical world through vision alone. Real-world manipulation requires contact awareness, force control, and feedback from interaction. [Read more…] about Robotiq launches tactile sensor fingertips for adaptive gripper
Covvi has unveiled two new wrist options for the Covvi Hand, which will make the advanced prosthesis available to more people with upper-limb differences than ever before.
Engineered to meet the unique needs of every user, Covvi’s bionic hand will soon be available in three distinct wrist options – the original Covvi Hand featuring a flexing wrist, alongside the new Straight Wrist, and Friction Wrist variants.
The original Covvi Hand’s ‘Flex Wrist’ enables users to adjust the angle of their hand for various tasks, offering 27 degrees of flexion and extension that can be securely locked. [Read more…] about Covvi releases two lighter, shorter variants of advanced bionic hand
Tesollo, a robotic gripper company, has launched its new humanoid robotic hand, the DG-5F-S.
This latest model builds upon Tesollo’s proprietary actuator technology, achieving a more compact and lightweight design while maintaining the core structure of its predecessor.
Like Tesollo’s flagship model DG-5F, the DG-5F-S features a five-finger, 20 degrees-of-freedom (DoF) configuration. [Read more…] about Tesollo unveils compact and lightweight humanoid hand
XELA Robotics presented its uSkin 3D tactile sensing technology at CES 2026, showing how advanced touch sensing can improve manipulation and automation in humanoid and industrial robots.
The Tokyo-based company, which focuses on tactile sensor hardware and software, demonstrated uSkin integrated into robotic hands and grippers, highlighting how robots can detect contact forces, object shape, and movement within a grasp.
The system is designed to provide robots with a more detailed sense of touch than is typically available using force or vision sensors alone. [Read more…] about XELA Robotics unlocks enhanced automation for humanoid and industrial robots
