From robotic arms and collaborative platforms to autonomous systems, precise motion control is key to performance, safety, and repeatability.
High-performance sensors—IMUs, torque, force, strain, and load—provide real-time feedback on orientation, effort, and movement.
Technologies enable responsive motion, spatial orientation, and force-aware interaction—ensuring operational success in demanding environments.
Enhance Safety in Every Move
Prevent overloads and enable compliant motion with accurate force and torque feedback.
Accelerate Development Cycles
Pre-calibrated, compact sensors integrate seamlessly into ROS and real-time control frameworks.
Achieve Unmatched Precision
High-resolution inertial and force sensors ensure accurate posture, contact, and positioning control.
Collaborative robots tackle Industry 4.0 challenges by offering precision, dexterity, stability, and the ability to handle heavy loads, all while operating in confined spaces. Achieving these capabilities demands dedicated engineering, including the integration of custom sensors for safety, control, and data collection. These sensors enable real-time decision-making by accurately measuring force, torque, and other parameters.

Motion control goes beyond actuation—it’s about how robots perceive and respond to their environment. Whether managing joint torque, correcting trajectory, or maintaining posture, HBK sensors deliver the data needed for intelligent motion control.
In collaborative robotics, surgical tools, and precision automation, robots must respond to touch, load, and resistance with human-like precision. HBK’s multi-axis force and torque sensors provide sub-Newton and sub-Nm resolution—allowing real-time control of interaction forces. These sensors feed data into control loops for compliant motion, haptic feedback, and adaptive grip—critical for safe, repeatable performance in dynamic environments.
Key Benefits:
Real-time feedback for safe physical interaction
High-resolution force and torque data
ROS and EtherCAT compatibility
Field-proven in industrial and medical robotics
Stability depends on knowing your orientation. Whether on a robotic arm or mobile platform, HBK’s IMUs and GNSS-INS systems deliver high-frequency measurements of angular velocity, linear acceleration, and absolute heading. Integrated into control logic, they enable posture correction and orientation stability—even during fast movements or under vibration.
Key Benefits:
Precise tilt and heading correction
High sampling rates for real-time feedback
Sensor fusion for minimal drift
Robust under vibration and impact
Trajectory accuracy is crucial for robotic arms, platforms, or mobile units operating under variable load or uneven surfaces. Strain gauges, IMUs, and load cells monitor resistance, movement, and structural force in real time—feeding data into control systems for trajectory correction and stabilization.
Key Benefits:
• Continuous correction for external disturbances
• Maintains motion repeatability
• Load compensation and vibration resistance
• Structural health monitoring via strain sensors
