About FingerVision

FingerVision is a Japanese university-originated startup, established in October 2021 and headquartered in Koto-ku, Tokyo, commercialising vision-based tactile sensing for robots. Its core technology reproduces touch from images: a transparent, soft skin and a small camera at the fingertip let a robot hand perceive force distribution in three axes, slip distribution, weight, grasp position and posture, shape, texture and foreign objects at high resolution, with a simple, low-cost and durable hardware structure whose skin can be replaced cheaply. Built into robot hands, the sensors enable handling of soft, irregular objects that has been difficult to automate, and the company pairs the hardware with AI imitation learning so robots learn skilled workers' motions.

Published work includes a food-plating robot offered on a monthly plan, a leafy-vegetable harvesting robot installed in a plant factory, a FANUC CRX plugin controlling its vision-tactile hand from the teach pendant, a CES Innovation Award for its FingerVision R1 robot system, and NEDO and METI-backed joint projects with major Japanese robot makers on vision-tactile-language-action foundation models and system-integration platforms. Its FV+ partnership programme works with robot system integrators across automotive, electronics, semiconductors, logistics, medical and food industries.

GlobleMatch Trust Signals

A directory that doesn’t sell stars. Trust Signals are built only from verifiable facts — never from anonymous ratings, and never for sale. There is no single hidden score.

Public information coverage	8 of 9 fields on the standard profile could be filled from public sources. This counts how much public information exists about the company — not how good the company is. The nine fields are listed in the methodology. Claiming the profile lets the company complete the remaining fields itself.
Last verified	10 November 2026 — facts on this profile were checked against the sources listed below. Profiles are re-checked on a published 90-day cycle; this date is never quietly refreshed.

Claim this profile to unlock response record, directory tenure and peer endorsements. The full methodology — what each signal measures and how it is calculated — is published in the Trust Signals methodology, including a change log.
