How Figure AI can use Orb Platform

Multilingual vocabulary training for humanoid manufacturing robots

The Scenario

Figure 02 works daily 10-hour shifts at BMW’s Spartanburg plant, contributing to the production of 30,000+ BMW X3s. BMW’s multilingual workforce (Spartanburg + Leipzig) needs consistent training vocabulary across facilities. Figure 02 delivers standardized terminology training — looking up “precision,” teaching it with a structured lesson using the architect style, and running a comprehension check. Same content on every robot, every shift, every language.
