Positioning

Sharpa (Singapore HQ, Shanghai manufacturing) is a self-described unicorn (founded 2024) making the SharpaWave dexterous hand (22 active DoF, >1,000 tactile pixels per fingertip, ~$50,000 per hand) in mass production since October 2025, plus the North full-body robot shown at CES 2026. Its reference-design win is decisive: NVIDIA's Isaac GR00T Reference Humanoid (Computex 2026) is built on a Unitree H2 chassis with Sharpa Wave hands, the first dexterous reference design on the GR00T platform, with lab partners including NVIDIA, Google, MIT, and Stanford. Revenue is estimated at 10-100m (early orders from global technology firms).
