Smart gloves for Smart factories
Welcome to the future of industrial work with our cutting-edge smart gloves. Powered by AI and integrated with our digital twin technology, Mimetik gloves offer unparalleled benefits for training, optimization, and real-time assistance.
World's first
IoT Sensor of
Human Activity
We built the world’s first industrial sensor for reading human activity. Mimetik gloves use advanced AI algorithms to track hand movements and interpret manual work steps, making them an indispensable tool for digitizing your operations.
With unparalleled insight at your fingertips, it’s time to unlock the full potential of your smart factory.




Our Vision
We empower human motion in cyberspace through an in-depth analysis of hand movements and interfacing them to machines. With our Mimetik glove, you can collect and visualize data and stream it to any program, robot, or system that you want to control by a hand movement.
Mimetik is a pioneer in creating high-tech smart-glove solutions for industrial applications and beyond. Founded as a spin-off from TU Dresden & integrated into the CeTI research cluster of excellence of Technische Universität Dresden, Mimetik has advanced the development of digitally identifying, tracking & documenting hand movements without the need for cameras. The sensor-based Mimetik glove captures movement data. Through our smart algorithms we can identify specific movements and will be able to teach best movement patterns to new users. We are convinced that the integration of digital hand movements is the gateway technology to the Metaverse implementation.
For Industry
The path towards highly efficient, fully connected factories goes through empowering the workers who are enabling the smooth operations at each step. While decades of work have gone into creating digital twins of factories, it’s time to integrate the intelligence and agility of workers to complete the picture. Mimetik’s IoT sensor digitizes manual work steps with zero infrastructure costs and without cameras, ensuring high privacy standards for easy adoption. By creating a digital twin of your best workers, you can optimize and automate the work environment, assist workers throughout the day, and improve efficiency.

Digital Training
With Mimetik’s Digital Trainer your workers can learn at their own pace. The standardized training harmonizes the best practices of your highly skilled team. By combining visual work instructions with real-time feedback, we keep your workers focused and engaged. Our IoT sensor, fed by continuous hand motion data tracks trainee progress and evaluates skill development. When necessary, the Digital Trainer signals your skilled workers to provide assistance, freeing them from full-time trainer duties.

Efficiency
The Efficiency Glove is the base product within the Mimetik product family. The integrated core technology allows access to all process data involving human operations through comprehensive time and motion studies. With our plug&play solution, production managers can easily balance station workloads, identify bottlenecks, and reveal optimisation potential – leading to efficiency gains of more than 20%. It is easy to set up and integrate into existing data acquisition software.

Ergonomics
Topping up our core technology with altitude and weight sensors, the Ergonomics Glove can record and identify ergonomic positions when lifting an object. This makes it possible to tackle false posture that can cause serious and long-term health damage. By issuing tangible improvement instructions for each individual and also with regard to workplace design, this solution leads to a substantial reduction of occupational accidents and a safer and more healthy work environment.

Quality
In addition to the core technology, this Mimetik product features high-precision localization sensors. With this addon, the Quality Glove can detect an employee’s position and movement over time. This provides useful information regarding the areas covered as part of the work routine. Therefore, it is predestined for any maintenance applications and can reduce machine downtime caused by manual work by considerable 25%.
