Unichem, a South Korean materials company founded in 1976, has acquired Brooklyn-based Loomia Technologies for approximately $6 million (8.6 billion won) to enter the electronic skin and tactile sensing market for humanoid robots and smart vehicle interiors. Loomia's proprietary LEL technology enables flexible bonding of electronic circuits to cloth and leather, addressing a key challenge in printed electronics.
Festo has launched GripperAI, an AI-powered software solution designed to enable robots to handle mixed, unfamiliar and randomly positioned products without extensive programming, template loading, or specialist vision integration. The software automatically identifies optimum gripping points for each item and selects the most effective gripping strategy for manufacturers seeking greater flexibility from automated handling systems.
Festo Corp. has launched the HPPH two-finger pneumatic parallel gripper, a lightweight system that integrates controls, sensing, and certified safety functions directly into the gripper body to overcome collaborative robot payload and wiring constraints. The company also shared progress on its GripperAI software for enhanced gripper functionality.
