Product Overview

Here's the English translation of the provided Chinese text about Kepler's fifth-generation dexterous hand and related technologies: **Fifth Generation, 11-DOF Dexterous Hand with 96-Point Tactile Sensor** 15 kg payload per hand, 8-hour battery life, 8,000 N thrust force, target price $20,000–$30,000 USD **Kepler TrueBionic™** **Body Architecture** As flexible as a real human, integrating multi-dimensional perception technologies to give the robot near-human mobility, breaking through traditional performance boundaries. **Self-Developed KeplerForce Planetary Power™** **Roller Screw Actuator** The first domestically self-developed planetary roller screw actuator, capable of batch application with high load, high precision, long life, and low cost, offering more energy-efficient and stable operation. Hardcore power to meet high-load demands: strong force for heavy objects, precise and stable work, 8 hours of continuous operation on a 1‑hour charge – energy-saving and durable, fully capable in complex scenarios. **Self-Developed KeplerGear Precision Rotation Power™** **Rotary Actuator** High-torque motor combined with intelligent algorithms provides powerful drive support, suitable for millimeter-level precision operations, ensuring stable and reliable motion. High-performance, low‑cost integrated rotary joint solution. Flexibly combines for multi‑scenario adaptation, easily handling complex environments. Intelligent algorithms optimize power distribution, increasing response speed by up to 30% for greater efficiency. **Self-Developed NimbleMaster Dexterous Hand™** **11-DOF Multi‑Contact Dexterous Hand** Intuitive operation like a human hand! 11 joint degrees of freedom for flexible grasping, 25‑point micro‑force control, automatic force reduction upon collision – effortlessly handling tasks from carrying a water tray to moving goods. Next‑generation tendon‑driven flexible tactile dexterous hand: self‑developed high‑strength steel‑wire tendon design, each tendon withstands 1,200 N tensile force. High‑precision six‑axis force sensor with force control accuracy finer than a human hair – capable of sensing tiny force changes equivalent to the weight of three strands of hair. **Self-Developed KeplerBrain Brain‑like System™** **Ushering in a New Era of Embodied Intelligence** Hierarchical architecture breaks down tasks, allowing the robot to accurately complete actions from perception to decision‑making to execution. End‑to‑end algorithms help it flexibly respond to complex environments, integrating multimodal information from voice, vision, and tactile feedback to enhance cognition and adaptability. **Kepler Embodied Intelligence Gen 1.0** Rule‑based models – applicable to closed scenarios, poor dynamic adaptability. **Kepler Embodied Intelligence Gen 2.0** Data‑driven AI models – suitable for data‑rich scenarios with little variation. **Kepler Embodied Intelligence Gen 3.0** End‑to‑end large models with massive data – adept at utilizing data, adapting to complex environments. Self-developed hierarchical end-to-end embodied AI system The on-device model offers significant advantages, leveraging conditional generalization to reduce data requirements while achieving better results. The high-level layers of the hierarchical model are controllable, moving away from the black-box model, allowing scenario-based adaptation and flexible application.
