Faraday Future’s AI subsidiary, FFAI, says it is accelerating its expansion into commercial robotics following its debut at Automate 2026 in Chicago, where it showcased its “one brain, multiple forms” robotics platform and announced progress toward its first-half shipment targets.
The company said its June robot shipments are expected to exceed 100 units, bringing total first-half deliveries to more than 220 units, surpassing its original target ahead of schedule.
At the exhibition, FFAI presented a portfolio of robotics products spanning humanoid robots, mobile manipulators and education-focused systems, built around what it describes as a common Embodied AI (EAI) software platform.
Among the products on display was the All-New Futurist humanoid robot, priced from $89,900, including a software package. According to the company, the robot is the first full-size humanoid in the US to natively support Nvidia Sonic’s full-body motion control system.
The system stands 5 ft 8 in tall, weighs 121 lb and is powered by a dual-battery system designed to provide up to six hours of continuous operation.
The company also introduced the FF Faber mobile manipulator series, designed for industrial applications including warehouse logistics, factory operations and facility inspection.
The range includes the Faber T, which FFAI says is already deployed in power inspection and data center applications, and the AI-powered Faber U.
FFAI says the product launch represents an expansion beyond its education-focused robotics business into industrial automation, with the company targeting commercial deployments across manufacturing, logistics and research.
During the event, the company also outlined a broader strategy centered on an open embodied AI ecosystem. This includes its EAI Brain software platform, an open developer environment, and an EAI Data Factory designed to collect operational data from deployed robots to improve AI performance over time.
According to FFAI, the approach combines multiple robot form factors with a shared AI platform and continuous real-world data collection to support future software updates and new applications.
The company said its robotics exhibit attracted significant attention during Automate 2026, with demonstrations visited by national television networks and industry media, as well as researchers and developers.
