Google Cloud rolls out Gemini Robotics ER 2 for robotic task planning
In brief
- Gemini Robotics ER 2 plans robotic tasks and generates commands via API since July.
- The model verifies step execution through video analysis without controlling motors.
- Promotional pricing until end of 2026: $1 per million input tokens and $5 per output tokens.
Google Cloud launched on October 27, 2026, a public preview of Gemini Robotics ER 2, a Google DeepMind model that breaks down robotic tasks, generates commands, and checks execution via video analysis. Available since July through the Gemini API, it does not control motors directly and leaves safety to the user. Until December 31, 2026, its pricing is $1 per million input tokens and $5 per output tokens, with a 50 % credit-based discount. Boston Dynamics cites industrial inspection as the only described use case.
