Figure AI

What is Figure 02?

Figure 02 is the world’s most advanced commercially viable autonomous humanoid robot, developed by Figure AI. Standing at 5'6" tall and weighing 70 kg, it boasts a payload capacity of 25 kg, a runtime of 5 hours, and a walking speed of 1.2 m/s, all powered by an electric system. Designed to mirror the human form, Figure 02 features hands that can manipulate tools and open doors, plus arms and legs that enable it to navigate stairs, lift objects, and move efficiently in human-centric environments. Enhanced by a partnership with OpenAI, Figure 02 can engage in natural conversations with people, leveraging cutting-edge AI models for superior visual and language processing. Figure’s neural networks ensure rapid, precise, and dexterous movements, while Microsoft Azure supports its AI infrastructure, training, and data storage.

Can Figure 02 Behave Like Humans?

Figure 02 is a general-purpose humanoid robot crafted by Figure AI, capable of performing a wide range of tasks independently, without human oversight. It excels in real-world scenarios, such as industrial settings, where it has demonstrated autonomous operations like sheet metal insertion at BMW’s Spartanburg plant. Key capabilities include:

• Autonomous navigation through complex environments
• Precision manipulation with force-based control
• Advanced vision systems for object detection and task prioritization
• Adaptive handling of bins and items
• Versatile pick-and-place functionality

Thanks to its OpenAI-powered speech-to-speech system, Figure 02 communicates in a natural, human-like manner using onboard microphones and speakers. It can even self-correct its actions, showcasing learned behavior akin to human problem-solving. A demo highlighted its ability to walk steadily in a factory and transport parts, underscoring its human-like adaptability.

What Are the Key Features of Figure 02?

Figure AI aims to create a humanoid robot with a universal interface capable of tackling millions of tasks. Figure 02 embodies this vision with its human-inspired design: two legs, two arms, advanced hands, and a sleek, matte-black exterior with a screen for interaction. It navigates diverse spaces, manipulates objects, learns new skills, and takes on challenging or hazardous jobs. Its standout features include:

• OpenAI-driven conversational and reasoning abilities
• Autonomous navigation in dynamic settings
• Force-based precision manipulation
• Vision language model for rapid visual reasoning and object prioritization
• Self-correcting, reactive manipulation
• Broadly applicable pick-and-place skills
