Tesla recently released a video of about 1 and a half minutes, showing the latest autonomous capabilities of the Tesla Optimus robot, in response to questions about its remote control. In the video, Optimus is able to autonomously shuttle through the factory, carry items weighing up to 11 kilograms, and automatically charge and climb stairs. Tesla wants the public to understand that all actions are done by Optimus autonomously and not by humans remotely.
In Tesla's previous "We, Robot" campaign, Optimus demonstrated its ability to interact fluently, but after the event, some participants and analysts pointed out that some of the robots still rely on human assistance for some operations and cannot be fully autonomous.
In the latest video, the Optimus demonstrates greater autonomy, as it can avoid obstacles and crowds, and automatically find a charger and complete the charging process. After charging, the robot can autonomously return to its working position. Tesla revealed that in the future, multiple Optimus robots will be able to share environmental data, which will greatly improve the efficiency of robots in factories and other places.

Milan Kovac, Tesla's vice president and head of engineering at Optimus, said Optimus has begun to learn how to interact with humans, and robots can now serve snacks and drinks based on gestures or voice commands. He further pointed out that all of Optimus' neural networks, including operational tasks, visual impairment detection, and localization and navigation, are processed by a built-in computer and completed with the help of AI acceleration technology. Kovac emphasized that in the future, it is still necessary to continuously improve the neural network and autonomous capabilities of robots, and expects Optimus to play a role in more fields. As the technology develops, Tesla will continue to improve the robot to make it more suitable for applications in factories, homes, and more scenarios.
