The Tactile Revolution: Pashini Perception Equips Robots with ‘Digital Skin’

At the 2025 World Robot Conference, a humanoid robot gently pinches an egg, with fingertip sensors capturing subtle force changes of 0.01N—just the right amount of pressure, leaving the eggshell intact. This seemingly simple action represents a revolution in robotic perception capabilities. In the thriving era of embodied intelligence in 2025, Pashini Perception Technology (Shenzhen) … Read more

What is the Current State of Robotics?

As the scenes of “robots” running or thinking independently in science fiction movies become less distant, are we truly in a “new era of robotics”? The answer is: yes, and it is happening faster than many expected. In recent months, a series of new technological breakthroughs have emerged in the global robotics field, ranging from … Read more

Concerns in Humanoid Robot Development: A 15-Year Transformation

The development of humanoid robots is caught in a frenzy of investment based on erroneous premises, attempting to achieve human-like dexterity through pure visual learning while neglecting the core necessity of tactile perception. The physical bottlenecks of walking safety make the vision of “integrating into human spaces” seem distant, and in the next 15 years, … Read more
