Figure's Corey Lynch announced Helix 2.5, the latest version of its robot foundation model. It can zero-shot three full-body behaviors across 30 real homes, with no training data whatsoever collected in any of those homes — the robot had to generalize entirely on its own. The result marks a concrete step toward deploying home robots outside lab and demo environments.
