Figure AI
Figure AI appears in 170: 【具身季报 26Q2】世界模型大风不停,和不想被贴标签的人 through its livestream of three humanoid robots sorting packages for more than 100 hours. The episode treats the demo as a concrete Robot Logistics Sorting case: the robots stood near a conveyor, turned packages label-side up, and made humanoid value easier for industrial customers to understand.
The source records Figure’s claim that the work used Helix 02 autonomously, while also noting public debate about whether some behavior may have involved teleoperation. For the wiki, Figure is therefore a strong commercial-demo signal but not yet independent proof of fully autonomous long-duration logistics operation.
E244|端到端vs上下分层:机器人路径之争,正在转向? adds Han Zheng / 韩正’s comparison that Figure demos have improved but still show limited object and environment diversity. The source uses Figure to clarify the difference between a company-prepared logistics scene and Open-World Robot Manipulation on arbitrary objects.
