Thinker

Thinker designs and manufactures intelligent robotic hands and collaborative robot packages for industrial and commercial applications. The company's product lineup includes Think Hand F, a robotic hand capable of grasping and placing objects through tactile exploration without requiring precise positioning; Thinker Model A, a collaborative robot package positioned as a solution for addressing labor shortages; and a proprietary proximity sensor equipped with an in-house developed AI model for sensing technology. Think Hand F enables robots to perform bin picking and other manipulation tasks that traditionally require human-like dexterity, using force feedback and proximity sensing to handle objects of varying shapes and sizes without pre-programmed trajectories. The Thinker Model A cobot package integrates the robotic hand with a collaborative robot arm, providing a complete automation solution for manufacturing and logistics operations. The company's proximity sensor technology incorporates AI models that enable real-time object detection and distance measurement, enhancing the safety and capability of robotic systems in human-occupied workspaces. Thinker targets industries facing workforce shortages, offering robotic solutions that can be deployed with minimal integration effort. The company has registered its Thinker Model A as a qualified product under Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry subsidy program for small and medium enterprise labor-saving investment, making it eligible for up to 50% subsidy coverage.
