Google opens a Cloud preview of Gemini Robotics ER 2

Expanded Cloud access to an existing model

Google opened Gemini Robotics Embodied Reasoning 2 in public preview on Google Cloud on October 27. The model had already been introduced earlier in the year; this event concerns expanded Cloud access and its enterprise controls, rather than a newly trained model release. [1][2]

Google describes ER 2 as a high-level planner that interprets multimodal observations, checks task progress and calls lower-level action models or hardware APIs. Physical movement still depends on those connected control systems; a Cloud preview does not by itself establish autonomous deployment on a particular robot. [1][2]
