Daimon DM-Tac Visuotactile Sensor

A line of vision-based tactile sensors from Daimon Robotics that senses force by imaging how a contact surface deforms.

DM-Tac is the vision-based tactile sensor product line from Shenzhen-based Daimon Robotics, a company incubated at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology that began formal operations in 2023. A vision-based tactile sensor places a small camera behind an elastic contact surface and infers contact shape and force from how that surface deforms in the image. According to the company’s website (as of 2026), the line includes the general-purpose DM-Tac W2 (available in two sizes, W2L and W2M), the 28°-pointed DM-Tac X for sharp-edge contact, DM-Tac F for dexterous-hand fingertips (covering the pad, side, and tip of a finger), and DM-Tac G, a two-finger gripper with sensors built in. The W2 and X sense at 384×288 resolution (about 110,000 effective sensing points) at a 120 Hz sampling rate, and the company states they can output contact geometry, a 3D deformation field, 3D distributed force, and a 6D lumped force. Daimon also uses these sensors to collect robot datasets that include touch.

ExampleMounting two DM-Tac W2 sensors on the two sides of a parallel gripper to pick up an egg lets the sensors give real-time contact deformation and distributed force, which the controller uses to adjust grip force and avoid crushing or dropping it.
