LINKERBOT stands alone in the global dexterous hand market as the only firm currently producing 1,000 high-degree-of-freedom units monthly. Its LINKERBOT series spans mainstream technical paths — tendon, direct drive, and linkage — serving research, humanoid robots, and industrial automation. The company commands over 80% of the global market for high-degree-of-freedom dexterous hands, according to third-party statistics.

Technologically, LINKERBOT has built a proprietary, closed-loop system spanning low-level drives, core sensors, and upper-layer algorithms. On the product front, following the LINKERBOT L20, the company rolled out the O6, L6, L20 Lite, L20 Industrial, and L30 models. This lineup forms a matrix ranging from lightweight to industrial-grade applications, and from peak performance to cost-effective quality.

On the industrial application front, the Linker Le Fu robot band, the Linker Qiaojiang industrial workbench, and the Open TeleDex teleoperation system are now in multi-scenario verification. Software-wise, Open TeleDex allows modular access across "any device, any robotic arm, and any dexterous hand," significantly lowering the barrier to data collection. Meanwhile, the LinkerSkillNet multimodal database has amassed a wealth of dexterous manipulation skills, and the Dex-Serl reinforcement learning framework incorporates end-effector force sensing and automated assistive algorithms to streamline model training.

LINKERBOT aims to deliver between 50,000 and 100,000 units by 2026.
