Touchlab careers

The biggest barrier to mass robot adoption is their inability to feel the world around them – Touchlab is changing this.

We have developed a truly biomimetic e-skin technology, which allows robots to roll pens, detect slip and compensate for this, and even identify objects through touch alone. This innovation allows us to push the boundaries of what’s possible in robotics.

We are applying it to grand challenges that benefit existing and unrealised markets including dexterous grasping automation, reducing infection transmission in hospitals, and nuclear decommissioning. We are also proud to be one of the only 15 finalist teams in the $10 million global ANA Avatar XPrize competition, enabling teleoperated robot Avatars. Our work is enabling operators to experience true presence through a machine, allowing them to speak, hear, see, feel and touch, from a remote location hundreds of kilometres away.
