Notable
Figure AI's first-generation proof-of-concept humanoid, revealed in 2023, which achieved untethered dynamic bipedal walking less than a year after the company's founding. It served as the demonstration platform for Figure's OpenAI partnership before being succeeded by Figure 02.
Deployment evidence
Legacy mentions are unverified. A partnership or announcement is not proof of an active deployment. Evidence labels do not change HMX v2 scoring.
Specifications
Evidence is attached to each value. Robot-wide source links do not verify every field. A source about an older value cannot support the current specification.
