LG Innotek & TDK Unify to Shape Physical AI with Vision & Touch Sensors

[Photo] John Min, LG Innotek CTO (right), and Shuichi Hashiyama, TDK CTO, pose for a commemorative photo at the signing ceremony of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for cooperation in developing physical AI solutions, held at LG Innotek’s headquarters in Magok, Gangseo-gu, Seoul.

LG Innotek and TDK have partnered to build AI hardware that merges robot ‘skin’ and ‘eyes.’ The collaboration leverages TDK’s sensor tech with Innotek’s vision and tactile expertise, aiming for smarter perception and interaction in systems.

The partnership will create vision modules using TDK’s high‑precision sensors for superior recognition, plus a tactile module that captures fine pressure and texture. These combined sensors let robots perceive and react with human‑like nuance while simplifying system design, boosting reliability, and speeding time‑to‑market for advanced robots needing both visual and haptic awareness.
