@Figure_robot Impressive to be walking without tether in 12 months. Could be more natural though. Are you using CV? how does it learn?

@Figure_robot This is cool but it's not walking. Walking inherently has an overbalance and a catch to prevent toppling. I would call this "shuffling" - there is never a point where the robot is not in balance.

@Figure_robot I'm excited to see hand motion and how its AI is setup to handle the environment around it. Robotics alone is impressive, AI is what makes robotics useful.

@Figure_robot Is it just me or is the Tesla robot way better than this? I saw it shoot a gun the other day at the cyber truck. Figure's robot is just learning to walk...

@Figure_robot Is the battery in the backpack? Would it be possible to distribute batteries on the lower part of the robot (thighs and shins of the legs) effectively lowering the center of gravity?

@Figure_robot It’s cool…but I can’t help wondering, why does it have to walk as a human does? Why not give it more stability and momentum with wheel that spin on casters. Am I the only one who thinks this? Hmm 🤔
