SUZHOU, China, June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Changingtek Robotics has launched globally its in-house developed high-precision tactile data collection hand. The device delivers synchronized multi-dimensional and multimodal data capture to support embodied intelligent robot research, precision manipulation tasks and algorithm validation.
This compact unit features a highly sensitive tactile array with a spatial resolution of 2.34 taxels per square centimetre. It supports force detection ranging from 0-160 N with a sensing precision of 0.1 N. The hand achieves XYZ positioning accuracy of 0.7 mm, pose precision up to 0.01°, and 30 Hz high-frame-rate data capture. It enables synchronous real-time collection of visual, pose, force and tactile datasets, which can be directly used for AI model training and robotics algorithm iteration.
Driven by Changingtek's proprietary software suite, the hardware supports real-time data processing and visualization, with seamless compatibility across mainstream operating systems, robot control frameworks and algorithm development platforms. Built on a unified architecture consistent with the motion logic and communication protocols of all Changingtek grippers, the tactile hand generates real-world sensing data with minimal deviation.
Weighing merely 600 g and offering up to four hours of battery runtime, this portable hardware allows extended field deployment. It closes the full data loop required for embodied intelligence research and accelerates the commercialization of intelligent robotic solutions across all vertical industries.
As a national high-tech enterprise, Changingtek specialises in dexterous robotic hands, robotic end-effectors and embodied intelligent robot systems. The company has established three core technology platforms covering mechanical intelligence, perceptual intelligence and drive-control systems.
Its complete Changingtek Hand product lineup includes industrial parallel grippers, collaborative grippers, multi-fingered dexterous hands and heavy-duty grippers. The portfolio covers payload capacities from single grams to several hundred kilograms, catering to all full-scenario automation demands. Leveraging tactile-visual fusion and AI control algorithms, Changingtek provides stable intelligent grasping solutions for aerospace, automotive manufacturing and smart logistics sectors. These solutions cut operational costs, improve robotic flexibility and further drive global uptake of advanced robotic end-effector technologies.

Changingtek Robotics Launches High-Precision Tactile Sensing Data Collection Hand, Uhand
KUNSHAN, China, June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, in collaboration with the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) and the China Road Safety Association (CRSA), conducted a road safety education program for students at Shiyu Elementary School in Kunshan. The event also marked the start of Goodyear's 2026 Annual Global Week of Volunteering in Asia Pacific and its International Children's Day celebration.
Nathaniel Madarang, President of Goodyear Asia Pacific, attended the event and underscored the importance of building road safety awareness from an early age among students, educators, and the broader community.
"Guided by our Better Future mission, we focus our community engagement efforts on three pillars—Safe, Smart and Sustainable," said Madarang. "We are proud to partner with CAAM, CRSA and Shiyu Elementary School to promote road safety education and help foster safer communities where we live and work."
As roads become increasingly shared by buses, cars, motorcycles and bicycles, road safety is more important than ever. Tires are the only part of a vehicle that makes contact with the road, making them essential to helping protect drivers, passengers and pedestrians alike. "At Goodyear, safety is the foundation of our innovation and at the core of how we develop our products," Madarang added.
CAAM Deputy Secretary-General Li Shaohua thanked Goodyear's active participation in road safety initiatives and commented, "Protecting the safety of every traveler is the shared responsibility of all manufacturers in the auto industry. It's our 4th year to bring the road safety initiative to the campus. Today's event showcased the strong commitment from Goodyear."
"We are so delighted to host the road safety initiative to Kunshan," said Hu Gang, vice president, Kunshan Economic & Technological Development Zone, "As a leading global tire manufacturer with over 128 years of history, Goodyear is a pioneer in fulfilling corporate responsibility in our district. This responsibility, not only lies in elevating the development of the auto industry but also in contributing to a safer community.
