About Helix
Helix is Figure AI’s generalist vision-language-action system for controlling humanoid robots. It links perception, language-conditioned reasoning and movement so Figure 03 can execute manipulation and mobility tasks through onboard processing.
Helix is a software and model family used on Figure hardware. Published household, logistics and manufacturing demonstrations use specific model versions, robots and training data. Figure’s June 2026 BMW work identifies Helix 02 for coordinated whole-body control, making model-version dating material to the profile.
