About the company
ArtSkin conveys the sense of touch to prosthesis users: sensors detect contact, and an interface on the forearm reproduces it on the skin. Prosthetics are the first market, followed by robotics and virtual reality. Development takes place in Bishkek, and the company has been registered in Delaware since September 2025. The founder is Iliias Dzhentaev. In 2025 the project won the Central Asia Startup Cup Grand Prix ($10,000) and advanced to TechCrunch Startup Battlefield through a regional selection.
