What the Figure 02 can do

evidence by capability dimension
Manipulation
Tier 4 · customer

BMW-confirmed production work involved removing and positioning sheet-metal components for welding; Figure demos show broader grasping and logistics manipulation.

Autonomy
Tier 4 · customer

BMW reported 10-hour shifts and large part counts in 2025 production; intervention rate and autonomy boundaries were not disclosed.

Mobility
Tier 2 · demo

Official demos show biped walking and learned walking behavior; BMW evidence implies workcell operation.

Perception
Tier 2 · demo

Figure describes six RGB cameras and Helix vision-language-action demos involving object recognition and manipulation.

Human interaction
Tier 1 · spec

Launch materials state Figure 02 includes microphones and speakers for speech interaction through AI models trained with OpenAI.

Reliability
Tier 4 · customer

BMW reported Figure 02 supported 10-hour weekday shifts, more than 90,000 components, about 1.2 million steps, and about 1,250 operating hours.

Human-environment fit
Tier 4 · customer

The robot is human-sized and operated in a BMW automotive plant workcell designed around human-scale production tasks.

What is proven

source-backed highlights
  • BMW-confirmed Spartanburg production metrics.
  • Customer-confirmed industrial sheet-metal handling.
  • Helix demos show broader manipulation.

Caveats

read before you trust a demo
  • No public Figure 02 price or purchase path was found; Figure describes the model as retired after Figure 03
  • No public price or purchase path.
  • No independent benchmark.
  • No disclosed intervention or failure rate.

About the Figure 02

summary from sourced evidence

Figure 02 is a superseded second-generation Figure humanoid with strong customer-confirmed BMW production evidence, including operating hours and output metrics.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
