Figure Robots Reset Bedroom in Under 2 Minutes Using 2 Humanoids

8 articles · Updated · Interesting Engineering · May 11

Two Figure humanoids autonomously reset a bedroom in under two minutes, hanging clothes, organizing objects, moving furniture and jointly making a bed.
The demo used a single Helix-02 vision-language-action system, with each robot relying on onboard cameras and learned behavior rather than a shared planner, central controller or direct communication.
A key test was handling the comforter — a deformable object with no fixed grasp points — which required both robots to continuously predict each other’s movements and adjust grip, posture and tension.
Figure said the capability builds on recent Helix upgrades that add perception-conditioned whole-body control and on BotQ manufacturing plans that aim to lift output from 1 robot a day to 1 an hour within four months.
