Optimus – Gen 2 from Tesla has come a long way since the very first Bumblebee prototype unveiled in 2022.
In the latest video uploaded by Tesla, the Optimus – Gen 2 demonstrates precise control of its hands and fingers thanks to a new six-actuator device that converts energy and signals into movement.
The video shows Tesla’s strange new humanoid robot performing squats among a Tesla Cybertruck fleet, handling delicate objects like eggs.
Its fingers now have tactile detection, meaning it can understand the pressure it needs to apply in certain contexts, such as when holding eggs. It can also handle objects delicately. The machine’s neck is also designed with two degrees of freedom, giving it a disturbingly human-like attitude.
The robot certainly does not yet have the advanced capabilities of some competing robots, such as Boston Dynamics’ Atlas, but it is catching up rapidly. Within five years, Tesla plans to use its humanoid robots to work alongside humans in real industrial environments, such as factories.
