en.Wedoany.com Reported - Flexiv has launched two adaptive robots, the "Enlight" robotic arm and the "Mico" dual-arm robot platform, designed to enhance tactile perception and physical AI capabilities in industrial automation. The company claims this represents a significant advancement in force-controlled robotics and embodied intelligence.

The flagship product, "Enlight," is a seven-axis adaptive robot with integrated multi-dimensional force/torque sensors in each joint. This design enables full-body tactile sensitivity, allowing the robot to detect single-point contact, track multiple contact points, and recognize tactile patterns.

Flexiv states that the robot combines force control with advanced vision capabilities, enabling automation of highly variable tasks that are difficult for traditional industrial robots to handle. Weighing 15 kg, the Enlight features four joints capable of rotating 720 degrees, providing a large working range while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for confined spaces.

Developed on the same architecture, "Mico" is a modular dual-arm robot system designed for applications requiring coordinated, human-like operations. The system integrates two Enlight arms through a single control architecture, enabling synchronized dual-arm operation. Flexiv offers four standardized configurations—Armor, Core, Plus, and Ultra—allowing users to expand platform functionality based on application needs.

The company also demonstrated industrial application cases developed with technology partners, including force-controlled robotic manipulation of graphics cards using the Nvidia Isaac Sim simulation platform. Flexiv's Chief Robotics Scientist, Shuyun Chung, stated that the launch of Enlight and Mico represents not only a key milestone for the company but also a defining moment for the automation industry.

Founded in 2016, Flexiv specializes in developing adaptive robots that integrate force control, computer vision, and AI technologies for manufacturing and industrial automation. The company operates in Silicon Valley, Shanghai, Beijing, Munich, and Singapore.
