Figure, a company developing humanoid robots, aims to address labor shortages in industries like warehouses, transportation, and retail. Their AI model, Helix, combines vision, language, and action to enable robots to learn, adapt, and perform complex tasks. Helix’s capabilities, including depth perception, multi-scale visual representation, and learned visual proprioception, allow robots to handle logistics tasks swiftly and adaptably.
The Helix system, comprising two neural networks, enables human-level dexterity and adaptability in robots. It facilitates seamless collaboration between robots and natural language interaction with humans. The Figure O2 robot, designed to resemble humans, is commercially viable and can operate in various industries, while the Figure O3 focuses on mass production and cost reduction.
Figure’s Bot Queue facility is designed for efficient robot production, prioritizing safety, reliability, and scalability. The company’s master plan envisions a future where robots handle dangerous or unpleasant jobs, freeing humans for more meaningful work and potentially transforming the economy and society.
The future is closer than you think. Keep exploring, learning, and asking questions.
