FIGURE REDESIGNS ITS HUMANOID ROBOT FROM THE GROUND UP FOR SLICK NEW F.02

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Figure's second-generation humanoid robot is aimed at production lines in commercial settings. Its engineers took a ground-up hardware and software redesign approach to developing the robot that included upgrades to the AI systems, computer vision, battery pack, electronics, sensors, and actuators. The robot now has microphones and speakers that allow it to have one-on-one conversations with humans. A video trailer from Figure showing off the robot is available.
