What stands out

What its maker marketed at launch, and what people found later, each with its source.

  • Full upper-body humanoid control from a VLA

    Continuous high-rate control of the whole humanoid upper body (wrists, torso, head, individual fingers) over a 35-DoF action space.

    Source: figure.ai

  • Dual-system architecture (S2 + S1)

    System 2: 7B VLM at 7-9 Hz for scene/language understanding; System 1: 80M-parameter visuomotor transformer at 200 Hz.

  • Multi-robot collaboration with one set of weights

    Same model ran simultaneously on two robots collaborating on a shared grocery-storage task.

  • Fully onboard on embedded low-power GPUs

    Runs entirely on the robot’s embedded GPUs - Figure calls it the first VLA ready for commercial deployment this way.
