CONTACTILE

Contractile is a Sydney-based start-up company established in early 2019. Contractile is an innovator in tactile sensors for robots and is enabling intelligent dexterous robotic gripping. The contractile tactile sensor provides robotic gripping systems with the sensory advantages of the human hand without the physical limitations related to size, strength, environment, and fatigue. contractile sensing technology was invented at UNSW Sydney by the founders with funding support from the Australian Research Council and the US Office of Naval Research Global.
