Price guide
Our estimateOur estimate
Roughly US$30 to US$110 each
Figure has not named the camera, so this is not its price. It is the range for comparable small colour camera modules sold to the public. A robot maker buying in volume would likely pay less.

Strengths and trade-offs
Our analysisStrengths
Several viewpoints at once, including close views of the hands.
Colour pictures carry the detail needed to recognise objects.
Small, light and cheap.
Matches what its AI model was trained on.
Trade-offs
A plain colour picture does not say how far away something is. The robot has to work that out.
Glare, shadows and poor light make objects harder to find.
Six video feeds take a lot of computing to process.
Why robot makers choose it
Our readFigure says its Helix model takes camera pictures straight in. Using only cameras keeps the robot simpler and cheaper than adding laser scanners, and it is the kind of input this AI learns from best.
This is our reasoning from the public facts. No maker has confirmed it.
Robots using it
This list covers only the robots researched so far. A robot missing here may still use this part.
