6thSense is a physical-AI hardware company building the touch layer for dexterous robots. It designs and manufactures wearable tactile-sensing data gloves that capture how human hands interact with the world — pressure, contact, grip, and 3D hand pose — alongside custom tactile skin molded to robot hands. Its capture stack synchronizes eight aligned modalities (tactile and pressure proxies, egocentric video, depth/RGB-D, hand pose, motion and IMU dynamics, wrist and scene cameras, dense labels and commentary, and success/failure outcomes) into model-ready demonstration datasets used to train the next generation of dexterous, manipulation-capable robots. Founded in 2026 in San Francisco and backed by Y Combinator (S26).
