MoSkin Robotics Raises Tens of Millions in Angel Round for Full-Body Tactile System

Decision Brief

What changedMoSkin Robotics secures tens of millions in angel funding from Sequoia China, Hillhouse, and Agibot to develop a full-body multimodal tactile system and world model.
Why it mattersThis company bridges the gap in robotic full-body touch with both hardware and algorithms, offering an integrated solution rather than single sensors.

Founded in May 2026 and headquartered in Shanghai with an R&D center in Shenzhen Qianhai, MoSkin Robotics recently completed an angel round of tens of millions of yuan, co-invested by Sequoia China, Hillhouse, and Agibot. The funds will support R&D, team expansion, computing power, and mass production testing. The company's MoSkin is a flexible multimodal tactile system based on electromagnetic metamaterials, covering hands, limbs, torso, and soles. It converts rigid robot surfaces into continuous 6D force field sensing, integrating force, temperature, slip, vibration, and material information. Additionally, it develops a world-action-tactile prediction model using multimodal latent space fusion gating, correcting decisions via high-frequency tactile feedback to reduce the sim-to-real gap. For humanoid robot teams, this offers a complete hardware-to-algorithm solution, saving self-development costs. In a carrying scenario, robots can sense friction changes and adjust grip to prevent drops. Future plans: first, prevent collisions for safe operation; second, use full-body touch for complex tasks like carrying boxes; finally, target elderly care and medical scenarios requiring high-precision human-robot interaction.
