California-based Figure AI company has set a new benchmark that will astonish the technology world with its humanoid robots.
Initially prepared for an 8-hour test, but remarkably without any defects, the test continued and the robots were able to work non-stop for over 24 hours.
Audiences viewing the live broadcast online were so impressed that they affectionately named the three humanoid robots Bob, Frank, and Gary.
These humanoid robots, powered by the company's advanced Helix-02 AI system, automatically and systematically sort packages without any human control or commands whatsoever.
During this period of over 24 hours of continuous work, the robots successfully handled and sorted over 28,000 packages.
What is even more exciting is that they handled boxes, bags, and padded envelopes at a speed nearly comparable to the work rate of human workers.
These humanoid robots performed tasks such as automatically scanning barcodes on products using cameras and AI technology installed on their bodies, assessing and picking up packages, and precisely placing items onto conveyor belts used for product transportation.
This successful demonstration of the ability to work for extended periods without fatigue like humans has brought closer the prospect of humanoid robots replacing workers in future warehouse operations.
