Figure 02 coming 8/6
Brett Adcock My wife asks: Will this version wash it's hands between taking out the trash and handling food 😂
This has been engineered for over a year, Figure 02 is the most advanced humanoid robot on the planet. Great work by a great team!
It seems they've figured out that they should focus on improving actuation rather than just software for manipulation tasks. While advancements in manipulation software might have reached a saturation point, actuation technology still needs significant improvement. However, it's too early to determine if these improvements are effective, as current observations are based solely on a design demo.
If it's made in California, nominate it in our "Coolest Thing Made in California" contest! Nominations end Aug 8th. https://coolestthingcalifornia.com/nominate/
Fascinating work, Figure! We're all looking forward to seeing the debut on 08/06. 🦾
Congratulations Team Figure! The 02 looks like a production model.
I am used to short and condensed engineering cycles but one year is somehow unusual! I am curious, it would be interesting to know which milestones of a full development cycle you covered here in a year.
Is Figure going public? I need to see these in AI bots in real life and in use. I want to be a part of this amazing time and see the world change for the better of humanity. Remarkable and inspiring work by Brett Adcock and the figure team
Whenever I see such advancements, it amazes me as to how close to predicting something like this years ago was done via the movies... ex: I,Robot (2004) NS5 ad on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfX5bUDQJVg... looking forward to learning more!
