Worked for a customerConfirmed
Figure reported in November 2025 that the 02 had worked for 11 months at BMW's Spartanburg plant. Figure's news page shows its newer model arriving there in 2026, so the 02 may no longer be in service.

Brain layer 1 of 5
AI model
The software that decides what the robot does.
HelixLikely
An AI model that takes in camera images and spoken instructions and moves the robot's upper body. Figure's own model. It controls the whole upper body, down to single fingers.
Why not confirmed. Figure's page says "Figure robots" and does not name the 02.

OpenAI-trained speech modelsAt launch, 2024Likely
Custom AI models for holding a spoken conversation. Used for spoken conversation at the August 2024 launch. In February 2025 Figure said it was ending its OpenAI deal and moving to its own models, so the 02 may no longer use them.
Why not confirmed. Reported by Nvidia, which does not make these models. The report on the deal ending does not say which robots it affects.

Brain layer 2 of 5
Chip
The computer inside the robot that runs it.
Nvidia RTX GPU modulesConfirmed
Graphics chips from Nvidia, built into the robot to run its AI. Two modules. Nvidia says adding the second gave the 02 three times the AI computing of the first Figure robot.

Senses
How the robot sees and hears the world.
Onboard camerasLikely
Cameras built into the robot. Six colour cameras.
Why not confirmed. Stated in Nvidia's announcement, but Nvidia does not make the cameras. We could not find it on a Figure page to check.

Training
How the robot was taught.
Teleoperated demonstrationsLikely
People drive the robot remotely, and the recordings become its lessons. About 500 hours of recordings from several robots and operators.
Why not confirmed. Figure's page says "Figure robots" and does not name the 02.
