The Figure 02 is a second-generation humanoid robot developed by Figure AI, unveiled in August 2024. Standing 168 cm tall and weighing 70 kg, it features 41 degrees of freedom, including 16 per hand, enabling precise manipulation. Powered by a 2,250 Wh battery, it offers approximately five hours of continuous operation. Equipped with six RGB cameras, it utilizes the Helix vision-language-action AI system for onboard processing. Designed for industrial and logistics applications, it has been deployed in BMW's Spartanburg, South Carolina plant, contributing to the production of over 30,000 BMW X3 vehicles. The estimated price is around $100,000.

Figure AI Figure 02

Figure 02 is a general-purpose humanoid robot from Figure AI — the highest-profile commercial humanoid deployment of 2024, with an active partnership with BMW for automotive manufacturing. Figure AI raised $675 million in 2024 from Microsoft, OpenAI, Nvidia, Jeff Bezos, and others at a $2.6 billion valuation. Figure 02 integrates OpenAI's multimodal AI for natural language task instruction — operators tell it what to do in plain English and it reasons through the execution. At 168cm and 70kg in a human form factor, Figure 02 can operate in facilities designed for humans without modification. The BMW partnership represents the first large-scale commercial humanoid robot deployment by a Fortune 500 manufacturer.
