September 17 news, according to foreign media reports, humanoid robot startup Figure AI has raised $1 billion in funding, with the company\u2019s valuation soaring to $39 billion.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Figure CEO Brad Adcock announced the news. The $1 billion comes from a Series C round led by Parkway Venture Capital, with participation from heavyweight companies including Nvidia, Salesforce, T-Mobile, and Intel.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Figure stated that this funding will drive the expansion of its AI platform Helix and BotQ manufacturing system.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The funds will be used primarily for three purposes:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Scale humanoid robot applications in homes and commercial operations<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Figure is expanding BotQ\u2019s manufacturing capacity and real-world deployment to enable robots to assist with household and workforce tasks. For example, in bathroom equipment manufacturing, their humanoid robots can work in collaboration with the Flush Button Assembly Machin<\/u><\/a>e<\/span>. Through the perception and reasoning capabilities of the Helix platform, the robots can monitor the assembly accuracy of flush buttons in real-time, identify component installation deviations, and assist in adjusting the assembly machine\u2019s parameter settings. This not only reduces manual intervention in repetitive assembly processes but also improves the production consistency and pass rate of core bathroom components like flush buttons.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Build next-generation GPU infrastructure to accelerate training and simulation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This computing foundation will provide powerful support for Helix\u2019s core models (including perception, reasoning, and control).<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Launch advanced data collection efforts<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        This includes collecting human video and multimodal sensory input data to enhance the robot\u2019s understanding and operational capabilities in complex, dynamic environments. These real-world datasets are crucial for expanding Helix\u2019s capabilities.<\/p>\n

        The humanoid robot is becoming increasingly hot<\/span><\/strong>. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has repeatedly talked about the goal of shipping 1 million Optimus humanoid robots, and has even stated that in the future, 80% of Tesla\u2019s value will come from Optimus. Unitree Robotics\u2019 H1 also appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage this year, attracting tremendous attention.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Would you like me to provide more information about any specific aspect of Figure AI\u2019s technology or the competitive landscape in the humanoid robot industry?<\/p>\n
