General-Purpose

Most robots today specialize in several tasks. General-purpose humanoids aim to change that by adapting to a wide range of tasks, tools, and environments on a single platform.

What makes a robot general-purpose is the ability to abstract and reuse skills combining multimodal perception, transferable control policies, and high-level reasoning to turn open-ended prompts into coordinated actions.

Modern systems increasingly blend reusable control layers with foundation-model reasoning. This allows them to perform multi-step tasks in homes, warehouses, and clinics without task-specific reprogramming.
