(hereinafter referred to as "Tashan Technology") has recently completed Series B financing, with an amount of several hundred million yuan. Investors in this round include Joyson Electronics, Taiping Innovation, Oaks, Penngling Holdings, Lavender Hill Capital Partners (LHCP), Hongshan Capital and other industrial parties, with additional investment from old shareholders Dow Technology and Binfu Capital. The funds will be mainly used for iteration of tactile sensors and chips, implementation of scenario-based solutions and construction of tactile training platforms. This company, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Beijing, is a developer focusing on artificial intelligence tactile sensing technology and full-stack application solutions. The core team is composed of R&D personnel from Tsinghua University, University of Manchester and other universities; the chief scientist is Steve Furber, co-inventor of the ARM architecture and an academician of both the British Academy of Sciences; company founder Sun Tengchen graduated from the Automation Department of Tsinghua University and is the inventor of planar capacitor and curved capacitor technology. In 2019, the company and the University of Manchester jointly established the world's first AI tactile perception laboratory. After years of intensive development, Tashan Technology has built a full-stack technology system of "chips-sensors-algorithm models-scenario applications". The importance of tactile perception in the robotics industry is quickly becoming recognized. According to the company's observations, the penetration rate of tactile sensors in dexterous hands has increased from about 20% to more than 60% in 2025, and continues to grow every month. Dexterous hands equipped with Tashan tactile sensors (Source/Enterprise) The core driving force for market growth comes from multiple dimensions: First, as embodied intelligence moves from "seeing" to "perceiving," the importance of touch as a key perception dimension for robots to interact with the physical world has become increasingly important; second, the industry's demand for robot data has exploded, and everything from simulation to real-machine training is inseparable from the support of tactile data. At present, Tashan Technology has built a complete product matrix covering chips, sensors, algorithm platforms and simulation systems. At the chip level, the company independently developed the world's first digital-analog hybrid AI
