## AI overview

Gemini Robotics 2 is presented as an intelligence layer for adaptable robots, enabling whole-body control, dexterous manipulation, multi-robot teamwork, and adaptation to new robotic bodies. The article describes three models: a vision-language-action model for motor control, an embodied reasoning vision-language model for communication and multi-step planning, and an on-device model optimized for local operation.
