Meta’s FAIR team has developed advanced tools to give robots a human-like sense of touch and movement. The new tools include Sparsh for adaptable touch sensing, Digit 360 for fingertip sensitivity, and Plexus for full-hand touch integration, with partners GelSight Inc. and Wonik Robotics aiding in distribution. Additionally, PARTNR, a simulation platform, allows robots to practice human interaction tasks, enhancing safety and effectiveness for applications in healthcare, manufacturing, and VR.
