Dead Reckoning

We make robots great at jobs that need touch.

The gap

Vision gets a robot to the part. Touch gets the job done.

Robots can see where a connector is. They can’t feel whether it clicked home, whether a cable is slipping, or whether they’re about to crush the part in their grip.

Those are the moments that decide quality on a production line, and they happen where cameras can’t see: inside the grip, behind the panel, at the instant of contact.

What we build

Tactile skin
Sensors made for the factory floor, not the lab bench. Designed to read the same shift after shift, and the same from one unit to the next.
Touch models
Models trained on real contact that let a robot react the way your hands do: feel the click, catch the slip, ease off before damage.
Operated cells
We put robots on your line and run them. You pay for completed assembly work, not hardware or an integration project.

Where touch matters

  • Cable routingLaying and dressing cables along their path without kinking, snagging, or over-tensioning.
  • Cable and connector insertionMating connectors that are tight, blind, or hidden behind the cable itself.
  • Seating verificationConfirming every connector is fully seated, on every cycle, before it ships.
  • Press-fits and snap-fitsApplying the right force, and knowing when the part has gone home.
  • Soft and deformable partsHolding firmly enough not to drop, gently enough not to crush.

These jobs show up in aircraft, drones, vehicles, data center racks, and industrial equipment.

Work with us

Is there a job your robots can see but can’t finish?

A pilot is one assembly step, on your line, in about three months. If it holds yield, it becomes a per-cell service with no capital spend on your side, and we add steps from there.

We’re running pilots with a small number of manufacturers. Tell us about the assembly step, the part, your volumes, and where it fails today.
