Agilink asked Fu Xianghong to train its OmniHand 3 Ultra. The hand learned to split silk strands. It can thread a needle. It can stretch fabric across a frame. It can stitch. Suzhou embroidery has over 2,500 years of history. The hand uses vision-based fingertip sensors. These detect 0.08 mm deformations. The palm has a 300-point contact sensor.
What changed
Robotic hands could not split silk strands or thread needles with human-like precision.
What it unlocks
