PHOTO RECAP: deadmou5 + Figure holiday party

Complete rager. We’re not just aiming to be the top AI robotics company - we’re also throwing the best parties 🎉

Exciting news - today, Figure officially became a revenue-generating company!

This week, we delivered F.02 humanoid robots to our commercial client, & they're currently hard at work

It marks 31 months from filing our C-Corp to getting to humanoid robot revenue

It’s official: F.02 humanoid robots have arrived at our commercial customer

The robots are connecting to the network and performing pre-checks this morning

Our time from filing the C-Corp to shipping commercially was 31 months

2 humanoid robots + deadmau5 🐭🤖

deadmau5 + Figure holiday party 🔥🐭🦾🤖

Heading to Figure holiday party 🔥

A fleet of F.02 humanoid robots was shipped today from Figure

They are being delivered to our commercial customer and will never return

Excited to be shipping humanoid robots into the real world, LFG!!

We’re hiring like crazy, come join us to ship millions of humanoid robots to the world

Figure’s new campus, moving in early 2025

What's next?

The team is heads-down designing Generation 2 of the imaging system. We hope to have this complete and validated in 2025

We’ll then begin alpha testing with local schools in California

We’re pushing - this can't come soon enough; every week kids are dying

Technology, Generation 2

Design is currently underway for our 2nd generation system, and it's a radical upgrade:

> Cheaper per unit
> Increased field of view
> Enhanced AI detections
> Improved penetration through clothes/bags

Technology, Generation 1

Our first-generation system was completed this summer and is now operating daily in our lab

Real guns are used for training data and to test our in-house AI object detector

Our system is capable of detecting weapons through clothing/bags

Besides schools, this technology will work at any public venue:

> Stadiums
> Churches
> Hospitals
> Airports

And It’s not just weapons, it can also checks for explosives

In the long run, I believe most major venues will have weapon imaging systems like this

Why are we doing this?

School shootings are up ~10x from a decade ago - it's a problem that's getting significantly worse

I believe our solution at Cover can help to prevent these at scale (majority of shootings are unplanned)

This always shocks me, K-12 school shootings since 1966:

Cover has licensed intellectual property from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory related to high frequency terahertz imaging

Other updates:

> Team is 12 people, mostly engineering

> Offices in Bay Area & Pasadena

> Fully self funded; I’m my own VC

Company Overview:

Cover is designing concealed weapon detection imaging scanners, similar to airport scanners, but with 10x higher frequencies and up to 4-meter stand-off distances

It’s as safe for human bodies as home Wi-Fi

Last year, I started an AI security company called Cover

Our AI hardware detects guns underneath clothes and bags

I’m currently funding $10M into it

Here's why we’re doing this and a 12 month update:

Agreed

Robots have been busy walking around the Figure office 🤖

This is a 3D map generated by the humanoid on-board cameras

Today marks a milestone for Figure: we welcomed our first recruiter after growing to >150 engineers without one!

It's important for hiring managers to take full ownership of hiring / recruiting

Having recruiters readily available can make it challenging to foster that sense of responsibility

Our robots are reasoning fully autonomously

Much of the core engineering infrastructure has been laid the last two years, 2025 is going to be 🤯

Figure is giving artificial intelligence a body

Figure has a 🔥🔥🔥 video dropping in the morning

First post 🙌

What’s the 101 on this platform vs others?
