Brighter Signals and CAIP partner to manufacture tactile sensing technology

Oct 8, 2025 · Partnership · Brighter Signals · Sensors

  • Brighter Signals announced a strategic partnership with Jiangsu Changshu Automotive Trim Group.
  • Under the agreement, CAIP will manufacture Brighter Signals’ sensors at facilities in China, with production expanding to a new European plant in 2026.
  • The partnership is aimed at scaling tactile sensing technology for automotive and robotics applications.

Brighter Signals develops flexible fabric-based tactile sensors for automotive, robotics, healthcare and industrial applications. Its sensors turn fabric-like materials into high-resolution touch, pressure, proximity and movement-detection surfaces, with software that converts physical interaction data into usable machine inputs. In robotics, the company targets grippers, humanoid systems and industrial automation where tactile feedback is needed for safer and more dexterous physical interaction.
