Last reviewed 8/28/2026. The score reflects the strength of the available record, not guaranteed task performance.

A general-purpose humanoid platform with public evidence of an industrial pilot at BMW. BOTIMAN treats the reported automotive contribution as a manufacturer account, not proof of generalized autonomous production.

What this proves

Figure 02 is shown performing a real automotive production workflow at BMW Plant Spartanburg, handling sheet-metal parts in the body-shop use case.

What this does NOT prove

This clip alone does not establish broad factory autonomy, fleet-scale economics, or performance across unrelated manufacturing tasks.

Automotive sheet-metal part handling · BMW Group

8/6/2024

What this proves

BMW's footage documents Figure 02 completing a several-week production-environment trial at Plant Spartanburg, including handling sheet-metal parts in the body shop.

What this does NOT prove

This 2024 footage documents a trial, not by itself a scaled commercial rollout; BMW stated at the time that no Figure robots remained at the plant after the test.
