Ant Group’s Robbyant open-sources tactile AI model for robot hands

Ant Group's robotics unit Robbyant has open-sourced the model weights and inference code for LingBot-Touch, a tactile AI model for robot hands, trained on nearly 5,000 hours of recordings from three types of tactile sensors so it can work across different hardware. Robbyant evaluated LingBot-Touch on 26 real-world tasks using two robotic hands, including handling fragile objects and coordinating both hands.

Ant Group’s robotics unit Robbyant has released model weights and inference code for LingBot-Touch, a model designed to help robot hands use touch to handle objects. It was trained on nearly 5,000 hours of recordings from three types of tactile sensors so that it could work across different hardware.
