Google DeepMind debuts Gemini Robotics 2 model series for humanoid robots
's artificial intelligence research lab today debuted a family of models optimized to power humanoid robots. Google DeepMind says that the Gemini Robotics 2 series enables multiple autonomous machines to collaborate on a task. According to the company, it can automate chores that comprise hundreds of steps.
Key Takeaways
- SiliconANGLE UPDATED 19:42 EDT / JULY 30 2026 AI Google DeepMind debuts Gemini Robotics 2 model series for humanoid robots by Maria Deutscher Alphabet Inc.
Many humanoid robots feature a so-called dual-system AI architecture.
- The model can split a lengthy chore among several different robots to speed it up.
Moreover, a tool calling feature enables ER 2 to access external cloud services.
- The other new feature makes ER 2 better than its predecessor at determining when a task is complete.
The faster a humanoid robot's AI can tick off a task, the sooner it can move on to the next one.
- As a result, the algorithm can optimize the host machine's center of gravity in a way that minimizes the risk of falls.
Furthermore, Gemini Robotics 2 supports a broader range of robotic hands than DeepMind's earlier software.

According to the company, it can automate chores that comprise hundreds of steps. Many humanoid robots feature a so-called dual-system AI architecture. That means they use two AI models to carry out work.
The first model, which is known as an embodied reasoning algorithm, crafts a high-level plan for how to perform a task. It then sends the plan to a so-called VLA model, which turns the instructions into low-level commands for the host robot's motors. The main highlight of the Gemini Robotics 2 series is an embodied reasoning algorithm called Gemini Robotics ER 2.
