PATON

Your hands.Anywhere on Earth.

Natural movement. Physical feedback.

The system

PATON closesthe loop.

You move. The robot follows.

PATON transfers natural arm, hand and finger movement to robotic systems. Touch, force and resistance return in real time.

Movement and control

Contact, force and resistance

Touch + force

You move.PATON captures arm, hand and finger motion.
The robot follows.Contact returns as physical feedback.

Our point of view

Robots should expandwhat people can do.

Many real-world tasks still depend on judgment, dexterity and experience. PATON carries those abilities into robotic systems while keeping the operator in control.

Because the human body already knows how to act.

Across disciplines.

Mechanical systems, wearable robotics, embedded electronics and software become one embodied interface.

Started at TH Köln. Shaped with industry.

Real prototypes

Built throughiteration.

Every prototype changed what came next.

PATON is an evolving research platform.

Possible futures

Where human presencetakes new form.

Across distance. Into hazardous environments. Through machines that carry human intent.

Simulate beforeyou act.

Learn by doing without real-world risk.

Work where peopleshould not.

Bring skilled hands into hazardous environments.

Let presencetravel.

Carry intent, touch and expression across distance.
