Introducing Helix 02

Summary
This official demonstration video from Figure introduces Helix 02, showing a Figure humanoid robot performing end-to-end chores in a kitchen. The robot autonomously opens a dishwasher, unloads plates, cups, and utensils into upper cabinets and drawers, and closes the dishwasher door. There is no spoken voiceover; only the natural operating sounds of the robot and ambient kitchen audio are heard.

What is shown

• [00:00–00:04] The video opens with the text overlay “HELIX 02” as the Figure humanoid walks across the kitchen toward the counter.
• [00:05–00:16] The robot approaches the dishwasher, bends down, opens the door fully, and pulls out the lower dish rack.
• [00:17–00:46] The robot grasps dishes from the lower rack, stands up, pivots to an open upper cabinet, and places the dishes onto the shelf.
• [00:48–01:15] The robot bends down again, pulls out the upper rack, picks up cups/mugs, and places them into the upper cabinet.
• [01:16–02:22] The robot repeatedly grasps additional glasses/cups from the top rack and shelves them into the upper cabinet.
• [02:23–02:53] The robot retrieves silverware/utensils from the dishwasher basket, opens a kitchen drawer, deposits the utensils inside, and shuts the drawer.
• [02:54–03:07] The robot retrieves remaining cutlery and places it into the drawer.
• [03:08–03:30] The robot slides the dishwasher racks back into place, lifts and pushes the dishwasher door completely shut, and stands upright.
