Figure's F.03 humanoid robot sorts packages at 2.83 seconds each against warehouse worker Aime's 2.79-second pace while accumulating 149,000 packages over 119 hours of autonomous operation

Robot continued sorting on days when Aime rested.

@MollySOShea This is an exact replica of a client use case but the packages are on an infinite conveyor loop. We do this for training the robots so they get a lot of package uptime

Figure is great at PR but I really don't get what this "nonstop autonomous operations" is supposed to prove. Hardware reliability? It's doing the same trivial sorting procedure at every moment, it doesn't need to maintain a context. And it's not error-free, even.

Figure livestream is back for day 6!

Aime got some well deserved sleep, while F.03 has sorted another 17,444 packages

Congrats to Aime!! He said his left forearm is basically broken 😂

Final scores: → F.03: 12,732 packages (2.83 seconds/package) → Aime: 12,924 packages (2.79 seconds/package)

This is the last time a human will ever win

Questions: 1. where are the packages coming from 2. are they the same packages over & over on a conveyer belt 3. what’s inside of them / weight 4. when are we going to do Figure unboxing videos? 5. do you have a whoop or Apple Watch on the human? How are you measuring human vitals and battery?

Would love to see more robotics companies do something like this (though its only meaningful with a general purpose platform)

Head to head comparison with the human in real task is one of the greatest - way to demo robotics - way to kill the skeptics - marketing stunts 🤪 @Figure_robot is raising the bar high 💪
