Gemini Robotics 2 brings whole body intelligence to robots

Gemini Robotics 2 is a new AI system that gives robots intelligent whole-body control, allowing them to perform complex tasks like walking, manipulating objects, and working together as teams. Unlike previous robots that follow pre-programmed instructions, Gemini Robotics 2 uses vision-language-action models (VLAs, which convert what a robot sees and understands into physical movements) to help robots reason through movements and adapt to new robotic bodies in just a few hours. The system includes three models: one for full-body humanoid control, one for reasoning and planning multi-step tasks, and one optimized to run directly on robot hardware.
