Linggan Robot, a tactile intelligence company, has secured tens of millions of yuan in angel funding from investors including Lihe Capital and Hefei Innovation Investment. The company's founder, Dr. Zhang Yazhan, a former Tencent AI researcher, developed a unique "dense force field" technology for tactile sensing and control. This technology extracts geometric shape and multi-modal tactile data simultaneously, offering higher information density than traditional methods. Linggan Robot's Lux series of visual-tactile sensors, which are thin and highly detailed, have already achieved scaled delivery in various applications. AI
IMPACT This funding will likely accelerate the development and deployment of advanced tactile sensing in robotics, potentially improving robot dexterity and human-robot interaction.
