Group 1 - The 2025 World Robot Conference will be held in Beijing from August 8 to 12, featuring over 1,500 exhibits from more than 200 domestic and international robot companies, including over 100 new product launches [1] - The number of humanoid robot manufacturers participating is the highest in similar exhibitions, with 50 companies showcasing their latest products and industry solutions [1] - The core advantage of humanoid robots over industrial and collaborative robots is their fine manipulation capabilities, which are expected to be a key focus for commercialization [1] Group 2 - In 2024, China is projected to account for two-thirds of global robot patent applications, with significant breakthroughs in mobility and dexterity for humanoid robots, enabling their application in domestic services, manufacturing, and logistics [1] - The release of high-performance embodied intelligent models is anticipated to enhance the fine manipulation capabilities of humanoid robots, accelerating their commercialization in various scenarios [1] - The Figure.02 robot, equipped with an end-to-end dual system VLA model, demonstrates advanced capabilities such as grasping control, dynamic vision, object recognition, force feedback, and task planning, indicating a strong potential for humanoid robots in both household and industrial applications [1]

打拳、跳舞、跑马拉松……"不务正业"的机器人终于能帮人洗衣服了！ 从之前的宝马车间到分拣流水线，再到家里的洗衣房，行业标杆Figure终于"登堂入室"，实现了真正的工业和家用场景操作。 刚刚，Figure公司创始人Brett Adcock发布了一段Figure.02机器人在家中洗衣服的演示视频。 视频里，机器人半蹲，双手协作，左手拿着衣篓，右手一件件将衣服放进洗衣机，中途还不时调整衣物的位置。 据Adcock表示，这套动作已经在办公室里连续测试了一个月，而这次是机器人首次在真实家庭环境中完成这一任务！ 怎么洗，体现机器人具体的技术执行能力。 那么，Figure到底做了什么？ 洗衣服这件"小事" 对于机器人来说，洗衣服这项任务可以分为两个层面： 在哪洗，意味着机器人的场景落地能力； 就像开头Adcock提到的，搭载Helix的Figure.02在办公环境跑了一个月后才在家庭环境中落地，这就体现出任务场景（task environment）之于机器人这类 智能体的重要性。 在工业场景下，机器人面对的是结构化、重复、确定的任务。像装配零件、搬动物体这样的任务，都具备清晰、可控的操作流程。 同时，工业场景中物体和设备 ...
