Figure 02 · Best for

Sheet-metal loading in automotive assembly — 2-second cycle precision on BMW X3 production line, 90,000+ parts handled in 11-month pilot

B2 · Best for

Power grid and petrochemical facility inspections, where thermal imaging and gas sensing payloads and all-terrain mobility justify cost.

Final judgment

If immediate deployment is the priority, choose Figure 02. If the goal is to be ready when B2's capabilities mature, track it.
