Why are robots still
terrible at grasping?
We take for granted the ability to easily grasp and manipulate almost any object, regardless of shape, texture, or surface. Humans have evolved dedicated parts of our brains just for the sensory and control aspects of using our hands.
Robots have not had the benefit of the same evolution.
Nexera is dedicated to solving the most challenging aspects of this problem which will enable robots to easily grasp almost anything.

grasping in the most challenging applications.
The Membrain
The fundamentals of grasping are based on how one touches an object. We believe the best way to touch an object is almost exactly as it’s done in nature – with soft, compliant surfaces. These soft surfaces, like your fingertip, conform to the object allowing a firm grasp.
Our technology relies on our Membrain technology as the interface to the object. The Membrain provides the ability to easily conform to any object feature and use it to form a firm grasp. It does this repeatably, reliably and with ease.
Machine Brain
Our Membrain technology requires intelligence, the ‘Machine Brain’, in order to meet its fullest potential. It mimics the human cortex ability to use hands with incredible functionality.
The Machine Brain leverages advanced algorithms from on-board sensory inputs in combination with computer vision and AI. The amalgamation is used to create a grasping platform with capabilities like nothing on the market.
Our now is everyone else's next.
