Precision In Motion. Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (VPG) to Showcase Custom Sensing Capabilities for Humanoid Robotics at RoboBusiness 2026

Humanoid robots moving into real-world environments like factories and warehouses need precise physical feedback from force and torque sensors to interact safely with their surroundings and handle unpredictable situations. Unlike stationary industrial robots operating in controlled spaces, humanoid robots must navigate changing environments and multiple contact points, requiring custom-built sensors integrated into their structure rather than standard off-the-shelf components that are often too large, lack multi-axis measurement, and reduce signal accuracy. Vishay Precision Group will showcase strain gage-based force and torque sensing solutions at RoboBusiness 2026 designed for specific applications like miniature tactile sensors for fingertips, multi-axis sensors for joints, and torque sensors for moving limbs. The company offers complete engineering support from requirements definition through production to help robotics manufacturers move from prototype to large-scale production.
