Figure AI’s F.03 humanoid robots just pulled off the kind of endurance test that would make an Amazon warehouse worker weep. Over the course of 200 continuous hours, three robots autonomously sorted nearly 250,000 packages without a single hardware failure.
The test was originally planned as an 8-hour demonstration. It ran for 25 times longer than that.
What actually happened
The livestream kicked off around May 13-14, with Figure AI’s F.03 robots working in shifts at what amounted to a nonstop logistics gauntlet. Three robots, affectionately named Bob, Frank, and Gary by viewers, rotated autonomously through their duties. When one needed to charge, another stepped in. No human remote control required.
The robots were powered by Figure AI’s Helix-02 AI system, which handled package identification and placement. Processing speeds clocked in at roughly 2.6 to 2.83 seconds per package. That’s nearly on par with human workers performing the same task.
