🤖 Figure 03 robot climbs stairs autonomously

Figure released a video showing its humanoid robot Figure 03 climbing stairs fully autonomously. The company did not share technical details or allow independent verification of the demo.

The robot uses an updated AI model called Helix System 0, which adds vision to its previous proprioception-based control. Stereo cameras create a 3D map of the environment, letting the robot see the terrain and adjust its posture in real time.

Training happened entirely in simulation with reinforcement learning on random surfaces. Figure claims the skills transfer directly to the real robot without extra tuning.
