Robot "apprentices" learn Suzhou embroidery! The finest work, the toughest test.

Robot apprentices tackling Suzhou embroidery represent a novel AI robotics challenge.

What happened: AGILINK's flagship dexterous hand, OmniHand 3 Ultra, began learning Suzhou embroidery from inheritors, covering steps such as threading a needle, splitting silk, and co-embroidering. The video was shot live with no CG animation. Key numbers: Needle eye is 0.15 mm. OmniHand 3 Ultra has 21 active degrees of freedom and uses full direct drive. Why it matters: The task tests multi-finger control, force control, and tactile sensing on flexible materials. AGILINK says these perception and control abilities can transfer to home and industrial tasks.
