Wonik Robotics

Wonik Robotics produces the Allegro Hand, a four-fingered, 16-DOF robotic hand that has become the most widely adopted research-grade dexterous hand globally, valued for its ROS compatibility and modular design. The company partnered with Meta AI to integrate Digit 360 tactile sensors into a next-generation Allegro Hand.

South Korea's Wonik Robotics has established the Allegro Hand as the de facto standard platform for dexterous manipulation research, with its four-finger, 16-degree-of-freedom design deployed in laboratories and research programs around the world. The hand's ROS compatibility and modular architecture lower the barrier for researchers to experiment with grasping, in-hand manipulation and machine learning pipelines. Wonik Robotics deepened the platform's capabilities through a partnership with Meta AI, integrating the Digit 360 high-density tactile sensors to give the next-generation Allegro Hand richer contact sensing. This combination of broad adoption and active industry partnerships positions Wonik Robotics as a key node in the humanoid hand components supply chain.
