“Figure AI has released a groundbreaking new video featuring its humanoid robot, Helix 02, as it autonomously tidies up a living room. Unlike typical robotics demonstrations, this video shows the Helix 02 navigating complex spaces, interacting with household objects, and performing everyday chores entirely without human intervention.
The secret behind its seamless movement is a single, end-to-end neural network. This system monitors the robot’s entire body through direct camera feeds, allowing it to synchronize its movements, hand manipulations, and environmental perception in real-time. Having previously mastered kitchen cleaning, the company has now proven the robot’s versatility in a more cluttered living room setting.
In the demonstration, the Helix 02 is seen using a spray bottle and towel to wipe surfaces, carrying containers with both hands, and even picking up toys. It remarkably tosses a pillow back onto a sofa and demonstrates fine motor skills by pressing buttons on a remote control. Most importantly, the robot remains agile, repositioning objects in its grip and navigating around furniture while continuing its tasks—a massive leap forward for domestic robotics.”
