SafeSkin employs Dobot’s proprietary pre-collision sensing technology, which detects obstacles within 10–20 cm and halts the robot before contact occurs.

While conventional cobots must reduce speeds to around 0.25 m/s in shared workspaces, SafeSkin allows collaborative operations at speeds of up to 1 m/s. This optimization increases efficiency by up to four times while maintaining worker safety.

SafeSkin is sensitive to various conductive materials, including human bodies, metals, water, etc. It is highly responsive to trigger safety protocols to prevent potential hazards.
