The chip is a Tesla original. Can be connected to Wi-Fi or LTE. The finger joints of the hand operate independently, and the thumb also has two degrees of freedom. Optimus can also carry objects and use human tools. Actuators are consolidated into 6 types while trying to standardize joints. The actuators used in the legs are powerful enough to lift a grand piano.

In the demo, you could pull a cardboard box off a shelf and deliver it to an office worker, hold a watering can to water flowers, or transfer parts to a cart inside a Tesla factory. Utilizing the AI technology cultivated in autonomous driving, it realizes accurate walking route creation from the depth map captured by the camera and high-precision manual operation.

The biped walking demonstration showed smooth movement. The first bipedal walking will be realized in April 2022. It is said that in September 2010, he changed to his current walking style with his toes separated. In addition, the demonstration of bipedal walking was carried out with the internal mechanism visible. A version with the exterior attached was also shown, but this was released with the stand fixed.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, said that the mass-produced model of the Optimus would be "cheaper to make than a car," and "probably will cost less than $20,000." He said the robotics business will become a more important business than cars.
