Boston Dynamics Atlas vs Figure 03
Verdict
The veteran of dynamics against the AI-first challenger. Atlas (89 kg, 56 degrees of freedom, up to 50 kg payload) is the most robust electric humanoid in the database; Figure 03 is markedly lighter (60 kg) and builds on its own Helix AI model and an ambition to mass-produce. Facts vs hype: Atlas dominates on raw physical ability, Figure 03 has bet on software intelligence and versatility, including the home.
