Sunnyvale California based startup Figure AI has already developed a general purpose robot. Called Figure 01, this robot looks and moves like a human. It is expected to be used in industries with severe labor shortages, including manufacturing, shipping, warehousing, etc.

Figure AI recently released a video that showed Figure 01 in action. The robot is attached to a rope. It walks on two legs and has five fingers in its hands. It uses its fingers to lift a plastic crate. It walks a few steps and then places the box on a conveyor belt.

Many companies are in the upcoming field of human robotics. The ones that have developed such robots include Amazon-backed Agility Robotics, which is planning to open a factory to manufacture its bipedal Digit robots. It is aiming to produce up to 10,000 of such robots per year.
