Humanoid robots are the focus of Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk in 2022. Musk made the revelation this week at an event about the company’s fourth quarter 2021 balance sheet. The Tesla Bot, which can also be called “Optimus”, would be the most important product to be developed this year.
The Tesla Bot was first shown at an event in August 2021. “I think the Tesla Bot has the potential to be more significant than the vehicle business over time,” Musk said. The information is from the Uol portal.
The robot will have the same semi-autonomous, driverless driving technology as Tesla cars. It will use artificial intelligence and will have multiple cameras to analyze the terrain and see obstacles. The robot can reach a speed of 8 km/h, is 1.73 m tall and weighs 57 kg. It can still carry up to 20 kg of cargo, according to the g1 portal.
