Google DeepMind releases Gemini Robotics 2 for whole-body and multi-robot tasks

Three new robotics models demonstrated whole-body humanoid control, dexterous manipulation, several-minute planning, self-correction, multi-robot collaboration, and rapid on-device adaptation, with reasoning access available in AI Studio.

Why it moved the index

The models move agentic capability into physical systems through whole-body control, hundreds of decisions over several minutes, self-correction, and multi-robot coordination. Access remains staged and reported success is uneven, especially for multifinger tasks; published safety tooling and human-proximity controls also reduce the residual risk.
