Figure speeds up humanoid robot home trials after powerful brain breakthrough
SMRTR summary
Figure plans to start alpha testing its humanoid robot in homes by late 2025, two years ahead of schedule, due to advancements in its Vision-Language-Action model, Helix. This system enables sophisticated upper-body control, multi-robot collaboration, and handling of unfamiliar objects using natural language commands. Running on low-power GPUs with a single set of neural network weights, Helix could significantly expand humanoid robot capabilities in industrial and residential settings.
