Figure 01
Figure AIFigure 01 is a superseded first-generation Figure prototype with useful early demos for walking, coffee-machine interaction, and speech-grounded action, but no customer-confirmed deployment. Do not credit it with BMW production metrics, which belong to Figure 02
Figure 02
Figure AIFigure 02 is a superseded second-generation Figure humanoid with strong customer-confirmed BMW production evidence, including operating hours and output metrics. Its broader manipulation/autonomy claims should be interpreted conservatively because they mostly come from company demos
