Part 8/15:
Tesla robotics engineers shared details about the enhanced design, including more flexible tendons, lighter components, and expanded tactile sensing capabilities. These advances are expected to enable Optimus to perform a broader array of useful tasks — surpassing expectations of a simple factory assistant. Industry pundits, like Fred from Electric and analysts such as Kathy Wood, are already voicing confidence that Tesla will achieve scalable, useful Optimus robots faster than the full deployment of robot taxis.
