Released two new embodied reasoning model endpoints for robotics:

  • gemini-robotics-er-2-preview: Advanced spatial reasoning, agentic code execution, multi-step tool orchestration, video moment finding, progress classification, and multi-robot coordination.
  • gemini-robotics-er-2-streaming-preview: Optimized for real-time text streaming using the Live API, enabling low-latency robot agents with bidirectional audio and video input.

Both model endpoints accept text, image, video, and audio inputs and support function calling with blocking behavior for physical robot actions.

Deprecation: The gemini-robotics-er-1.6-preview model will be shut down on August 31, 2026.
