Unleashing Endless Possibilities With Tesla Robot
Tesla, the technological giant, has taken the lead and has set the bar high for its competitors. The unveiling of the Tesla humanoid robot is a giant leap in the right direction, redefining the technological landscape.
Redefining The Technological Landscape
At Tesla’s AI Day, the robot Optimus made the first appearance on the stage, waved at the audience, and made hand gestures to greet them. Tesla’s CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, claimed that the robot was working for the first time without a tether. The Optimus appears to be substantially less capable than other robots from rival companies like Hyundai-owned Boston Dynamics. Their robots have been spotted performing complex dance routines, including backflips, without a tether.
Elon Musk’s Statements
At the presentation, Musk remarked, “The robot can accomplish a lot more than we just showed you.” We didn’t want it to collapse on itself. Tesla also displayed films of their robot carrying boxes and watering plants, among other straightforward duties.
According to Musk, the robot would cost less than $20,000 if manufactured in large numbers. Tesla claims that Optimus’ competitive edge will come from its capacity to navigate on its own, utilizing technologies created for its Full Self Driving assistance system. (Tesla’s Full Self Driving still needs a human to be vigilant to take control at any moment because it is not yet fully capable of operating on its own.)
Timeline Of Tesla’s Robotic Endeavors
Tesla has a history of setting high price goals that it eventually fails to meet. Long promised as a $35,000 vehicle, the Tesla Model 3 was only temporarily available for that price. Currently, the least expensive Tesla Model 3 is $46,990. In 2019, when Tesla unveiled the Cybertruck, a pick-up truck still unavailable for purchase, it was priced at $39,990. However, Tesla’s website no longer lists that amount.
The primary goal of Tesla AI Day is to recruit talented individuals for the firm. According to Musk, robots can facilitate society. Despite its shortcomings compared to the competitors, the robot on exhibit was far superior to what Tesla released a year ago.
The development of Tesla’s humanoid robot does not set any precedent. For nearly 20 years, Honda and Hyundai’s Boston Dynamics have been striving to bring new advancements to the “Asimo” line of robots. Asimo was a humanoid robot that could run, walk, climb, and descend stairs while untethered and manipulating objects with its fingers. In 2018, the Japanese business stopped working on Asimo as a Korean manufacturer, and Hyundai 2020 acquired the company.
