Figure AI Reports Figure 03 Walked 348 Miles in Nine-Day Treadmill Test
Figure AI CEO Brett Adcock said Figure 03 completed a nine-day treadmill endurance test in which it covered 348 miles (560 kilometers) and took approximately 1.2 million steps. Footage shared by Adcock showed the robot walking with a cable attached, according to Interesting Engineering. Figure has not disclosed the cable’s purpose or how power was managed, and has not clarified whether one robot completed the full test, whether maintenance was needed, or whether the run was interrupted. The claimed metrics and uninterrupted operation have not been independently verified.
The vendor-reported distance indicates the repetitive mechanical demands Figure 03 sustained during the controlled test. It does not establish nine-day single-battery operation, autonomous navigation, or reliable performance in routine commercial work.
Figure AI’s latest humanoid robot has reportedly walked 348 miles without leaving a treadmill.
On Oct. 19, Figure CEO Brett Adcock reported that the company’s Figure 03 humanoid had logged approximately 1.2 million steps over nine days during an endurance experiment. According to Adcock, the test began as a side project intended to stress the robot’s hardware and expose potential mechanical failures.
The milestone offers another glimpse into the progress of humanoid robotics. But for manufacturers and warehouse operators, the bigger question is whether impressive results in controlled environments can translate into reliable performance during everyday operations.
