🎓 I graduated from MIT in 2024. What got me through my Ph.D. wasn't just hard work and a great lab — it was also the open-source tools, codebases, and shared resources from a community that believed in giving freely. Now it's our turn. 🙌 🤖 We're launching the Dexmate Build with Vega U Research Grant Program to put high-quality, easy-to-use robot platforms in the hands of university labs — so researchers can stop being bottlenecked by their hardware and get back to making breakthroughs. 🚀 💡 If you're a PI working on the next wave of Physical AI, I personally encourage you to apply. This program is for the whole research community — whether we've met or not. No strings attached. 🤝 👇 Apply here: dexmate.ai/research-grant If this resonates, tag a lab or researcher who should know about this. 📣

🚀 New Product Release We're launching three new products: 🤖 Bimanual Manipulation Platform - Surface-mountable system designed for customization. Can be mounted on versatile surfaces to fit your specific needs. 🤲 Compliant Gripper - Features built-in vision 👁️ and tactile feedback for adaptive grasping. 💪 Heavy-Duty Gripper - Designed for grasping elongated and heavy objects. 📍 I am attending CoRL in Seoul 🇰🇷 Happy to connect and chat about robotics or potential collaborations. Feel free to DM me! 💬 #Robotics #Manipulation #CoRL2025 #Automation #PhysicalAI
Dexmate@DexmateAI

One more thing... actually, three more things. 🎯 Today, we're introducing three products that will make robots more useful in versatile environments. 🤖 Vega U The first truly dexterous bimanual platform. Human-like upper-body kinematics. Mount it anywhere – tabletop, mobile base, anywhere you need it. It just works. ✨ Dexgripper S Simple. Elegant. Intelligent. Built-in compliance. Vision and tactile feedback. Everything you need, nothing you don't. 💪 Dexgripper D Four pads. Maximum stability. Heavy objects? Long objects? No problem. It's not just better – it's dramatically better. Three new products. One vision: Making robots truly useful. 🚀 Learn more → dexmate.ai

💪 Robot exercise time At @DexmateAI, we build Vega with precision engineering and premium components. Our hardware features top-tier motors and harmonic drives that deliver exceptional performance and durability. Quality parts = quality robots that handle impressive payloads without breaking a sweat.
Dexmate@DexmateAI

🤖 Physical AI is evolving weekly, but many models are trained on robots with limited payload capacity--restricting their real-world utility. 💪 To truly deploy AI in physical spaces, we need stronger hardware to unlock these models' full potential. Vega is capable of lifting 15+ lbs! 🚀 What applications will emerge when cutting-edge AI models meet Vega's physical capabilities? #PhysicalAI #EmbodiedAI #Robots #Automation #RealworldAI
