OmniGlove Specifications Posted for Teleoperation and Data Collection Glove

cn.agilink-ai.com posted specifications for OmniGlove. The Pro version is said to have 746 tactile points on one hand and cover 17 areas. The glove’s teleoperation functions are said to be compatible with the OmniHand 3 series.

What happened

On November 12, 2026, cn.agilink-ai.com posted specifications for OmniGlove, a glove for teleoperation and data collection. According to the page, it combines 6 EMF sensors and 7 IMUs, with typical position accuracy of 1mm or less and typical orientation accuracy of 1.5 degrees or less. The Pro version is said to have 746 tactile points on one hand, covering 17 areas across the entire palm.

Why it matters

The specifications describe a product that combines tactile measurement and data-recording functions in a glove for teleoperation. For prospective users, key considerations in determining whether it is suitable include the scope of compatibility with the OmniHand 3 series and whether tactile and orientation data synchronization and accuracy can be reproduced under actual working conditions.

Analysis

The design feature highlighted on the product page is that the glove combines not only hand-motion input for teleoperation but also data collection that includes tactile information. If position and orientation tracking and tactile measurement are integrated into the same device, the system can combine operator input with information about contact. However, the page provides the product’s stated specifications, not evaluation results showing the data quality achievable in actual work. The number of tactile points and the force and spatial resolution of the Pro version indicate the level of detail at which it is designed to capture tactile data. The information provided does not show how data from the glove is mapped to robot movements, or what data formats and downstream processing methods are used. The number of tactile points alone is not enough to determine operational accuracy in real environments or the data’s effectiveness for learning. The page lists teleoperation compatibility with OmniHand 3, OmniHand 3 Lite and OmniHand 3 Ultra. Accordingly, the explicitly stated compatibility scope is limited to products in the same series. Connection methods for different robots and interoperability with third-party equipment are not specified, making interface specifications a consideration when expanding deployment. The page also describes a configuration that computes the wrist and fingers through the same pipeline and a calibration time of 10–15 seconds, but does not specify the calibration conditions or variability across repeated calibrations. The page also mentions measures to address magnetic interference and synchronization of tactile and orientation data, but does not provide the test environment, durability during extended use or conditions for evaluating synchronization error. The page lists figures of 10ms, 1000Hz and 125Hz at the end, but the supplied text does not define what each figure represents. Assessing reproducibility in mass-production environments will require checking the measurement conditions for these specifications, how output data is handled and evaluations in actual work. See the original source for details.
