Figure AI and BMW have announced that the Figure 02 humanoid robot is now 4 times faster and has a sevenfold improvement in success rate on BMW's production line.
The humanoid is running up to 1,000 placements a day and demonstrates its capabilities in high-precision sheet metal insertion tasks.
The partnership between Figure AI and BMW began earlier this year, and the humanoid will return to BMW's plant in January 2025.
Figure AI raised $675 million in Series B funding and plans to deploy more humanoid robots in real-world environments by 2025.
