Few interesting details around the F.03 livestream:
> We previously showed this task running for 1 hour. Today we're pushing for 8 hours straight. High odds something breaks
> The use case is small package sorting. F.03 must detect the barcode, pick up the package, and reorient it barcode face-down onto the conveyor. The robots have to reason purely from camera pixels
> Humans average ~3 seconds per package. F.03 is now around human parity
> The robots are fully autonomous running Helix-02, our in-house neural network running entirely onboard F.03 (e.g. AI inference is done on device)
> Multiple humanoids are networked together and communicating with each other to maximize conveyor uptime. The system is designed to run 24/7
> A robot will work until battery is low (~3-4 hours), then autonomously request another robot to swap in to minimize conveyor downtime
> It's a multi-robot coordination with autonomous failover strategy. If a robot detects an issue - it will self diagnose itself and if there's an issue it autonomously walks to maintenance and requests a replacement from the fleet - no humans in the loop

Figure just live-streamed 8 hours of fully autonomous, unsupervised work
We just huddled internally - and guess what? We’re not stopping here
24/7 LIVESTREAM

Watch a team of humanoid robots running a full 8-hr shift at human performance levels. This is fully autonomous running Helix-02
Film crew is ready, going early ~10am PT
Figure is going live around 11am PT today with an 8-hour livestream of our robots running at human speeds
This will be fully autonomous on Helix-02 w/ zero human intervention
The robots will work together to keep operations running nonstop
I’ll share the link soon

Just leaving Figure’s critical design review for F.04 - the robot is now in full design lock and we're starting to ship parts
F.04 is by far the biggest leap we’ve ever made between robot generations. The level of engineering advances in this system is on a completely different level
At Figure, engineering reviews are extremely rigorous. We start with high-level architecture reviews and work all the way down to detailed reviews on every millimeter, watt, and gram of the robot. We've engineered something really mind blowing and I can't wait to show the world what this team is capable of
One easter egg - the image in the background is from earlier F.04 design reviews :)

Texting the film crew, livestream tomorrow
Just another day at the office
Figure is giving AI a body
We taught two F.03 robots to clean a room and make a bed in under 2 minutes - fully autonomous.
Figure has a 🤯🤯🤯 update coming tomorrow
F.03 charges wirelessly via the feet
Figure 03 comes with a specialized charging stand.
It anchors the robot so the motors can relax and stop using power to balance, while charging it inductively at 2 kW through the soles of its feet.
Robots can do 4 to 5 hours of work after 1 hour of charging.

In the last 120 days, Figure scaled manufacturing 24x - from 1 robot/day to 1 robot/hour
We will manufacture 55 humanoid robots this week
This week, Figure has passed 5 months running on the BMW X3 body shop production line
We have been running 10 hours per day, every single day of production!
It is believed that Figure and BMW are the first in the world to do this with humanoid robots
