On the evening of January 30, local time, Musk posted a video of Tesla’s “Optimus Prime” humanoid robot walking on the social platform X.And the caption said, "I'm going to take a walk with Optimus."In the video, the humanoid robot has a light and natural gait, and its two robotic arms can also swing with the pace, which has some human characteristics.
And a few days ago,Musk also posted a video of Tesla's Optimus humanoid robot folding its own shirts.
"Optimus Prime" stood at a table, slowly folding a black shirt, moving his arms and wrists flexibly, and slowly folding the shirt neatly.
From the demonstration video of the new-generation OptimusGen2 prototype released by Tesla last month, we can see that the second-generation Optimus robot has been significantly improved in all aspects compared with the previous generation.
The wrist and fingers can rotate flexibly, and can even pick up eggs and put them on the tray; the walking speed is 30% faster than the previous generation.It may not be far away from being able to provide tea and water services to humans.
Tesla said Optimus Gen2 will first be used in its manufacturing plants, and once its usefulness is proven, the company will start selling the robot.
Musk added that Optimus is severely undervalued and that demand could reach 10 billion to 20 billion units, and "confidently predicted" that Optimus will account for the majority of Tesla's long-term value.
