Dexterity launches Instinct tactile intelligence system
Dexterity announced the launch of Instinct, a tactile intelligence system that reads force at 500–2000 Hz and responds in 0.5–2 ms to perform force-guided bin packing on production lines, with a median placement time of 4.55 seconds and an overall team success rate of 81% (95% CI 75%–86%, sampled from 854 placements). Placements that cannot be completed are quickly identified and handed back to the Foresight world model to retry with a different angle or position; the same skill delivers consistent performance across different robotic arm hardware and generalizes to objects of different materials.
