    I’ve been itching to share this part of my work publicly. The robustness and precision of Gemini Robotics 2 surpassed our own expectations- note the recovery behaviours, the generality of the solutions, untangling complex kinematic states. Uninterrupted 20 mins.

    Here’s a first look at Gemini Robotics 2 from @GoogleDeepMind on the FR3 Duo: 20 minutes of uninterrupted, real-time tool kitting. Notice the emergent recovery behaviours - generalized dexterity & precision at a whole new level. More demos dropping over the next days! Stay

    Gemini Robotics 2 can also generalise to a range of scenes including out of distribution ones while maintaining it's precision. Notice how it also works across different heights and 3D poses.

    Among all fantastic contributions that are part of our new release, perhaps the closest one to my heart is the gripper level dexterity we can get out of our GR2 models 🤖

    To be genuinely useful in our homes and workplaces, robots need finesse. Gemini Robotics 2 equips different hardware platforms with high dexterity. It can control a five-fingered hand to tie a knot or screw in a lightbulb - while also managing parallel grippers for complex

    Observability of the state space is truly important for robotics. Yet, we don't always get to navigate easy to observe spaces in our everyday life. That is why active vision is so important on our path to achieving physical intelligence. @GoogleDeepMind GR1.5 shows first signs!

    One of the coolest features in our newest release for Gemini Robotics 1.5 was using the wrist camera of one of the arms of our bi-arm Franka robot for active vision! Without this capability the model would not have enough visibility to solve some of our most dexterous tasks.
