Haply Robotics :: Haptic Technology & Intuitive 3D Interaction Devices

Haply Robotics is a Montreal-based deep-tech company founded in 2018 that specializes in haptic technology and intuitive 3D interaction devices. The company develops force-feedback hardware and software solutions that bring realistic touch and physical interaction to digital environments, bridging the gap between humans and virtual or remote systems. Haply’s technology is used for robot control, immersive training simulations, 3D design, and physical AI applications.

Haply does not build full industrial robots but creates high-precision haptic interfaces that serve as advanced input and control devices for robotic systems, teleoperation, and simulation. Their products enable natural, intuitive control with force feedback, allowing users to “feel” virtual objects or remotely operated robots.

Key robot-based and haptic products include:

• Inverse3: Haply’s flagship product — a compact, versatile 3D haptic device often described as the next-generation 3D mouse. It provides 6 degrees of freedom (position + rotation) with force feedback, making it ideal for intuitive robot teleoperation, precise 3D modeling, immersive training, and spatial computing. The device is portable, high-performance, and designed for both professional and consumer applications.

Haply’s technology supports several key use cases:

• Robot Control: Precise, force-sensitive teleoperation of robotic arms and systems, improving safety and dexterity in industrial and remote environments.
• Skills Training: Haptic simulation for medical, vocational, and industrial training, allowing users to practice procedures with realistic touch feedback.
• 3D Design & Physical AI: Enhanced interaction in CAD, VR/AR, and AI training environments, including recent collaborations with NVIDIA and Geomagic for sculpting and physical AI applications.

The company has received recognition including CES Innovation Awards and partnerships with major players like NVIDIA and AWS. It targets industries such as robotics, healthcare, manufacturing, aerospace, and design. Haply emphasizes making complex 3D interactions as natural as physical manipulation.
