Tesla's advancements aren't isolated—they leverage shared AI models used in FSD vehicles, enabling the robots to navigate, detect obstacles, and manipulate objects seamlessly. Multiple sources confirm that these behaviors run on real-time, onboard AI hardware, not remote commands, illustrating Tesla's focus on true autonomy and edge processing.
In terms of energy, the Optimus robots incorporate 2.3 to 2.7 kWh batteries, a small energy footprint compared to vehicle batteries, optimized for their smaller size and tasks. Despite this, the potential for wireless charging, showcased with no hands required charging stations, hints at future innovations to improve efficiency and convenience.
