Google DeepMind releases Gemini Robotics 2.5 for robotics partners
Overview
Google DeepMind introduces Gemini Robotics 2.5, a vision-language-action model that it says is rolling out to its robotics partners.
The company reports 30% to 100% higher success rates and 20% to 30% faster task completion across more than 200 tasks compared with previous baselines. These figures are the company's own.
In a proof of concept with Apptronik and Mercedes-Benz, Gemini Robotics 2.5 helped Apptronik's Apollo 2 humanoid pick and organize car parts for assembly with 96% accuracy, according to Google DeepMind. The company says Gemini 4 Argon helped build the model by generating virtual practice spaces from a single camera view and reviewing replays of the model's own mistakes. Google DeepMind also says it added ways for robots to spot hazards, steer away from humans and test against jailbreaks.
