As the most advanced humanoid robot available for purchase, it is not a unique prototype like those from Boston Dynamics and could potentially become part of the automaker’s production line if the tests are successful.
During the evaluation, the Figure 02 was tasked with inserting metal sheets into supports, demonstrating its ability to perform tasks with precision and care.

BMW observed the robot’s interaction with its surroundings, and the results were positive, leading the automaker to consider further development and testing in collaboration with Figure.
Although BMW has stated that the test was successful, the Figure robots are not yet operating in the factory, and there is no set timeline for their implementation. The automaker is exploring applications for these robots in tasks that would be uncomfortable and tiring for humans, aligning with the vision for future production in the iFactory.
