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.
