Over the past couple of months, our awesome manufacturing team has built more bots for us to work on, and collect AI data from! We’ve trained and deployed a neural net allowing Optimus to start doing useful tasks, such as picking up battery cells coming down a conveyor and

Very proud of and grateful for the team's hard work leading to our 10/10 event last week.  So excited to give many people a live feel of our progress with Optimus and its expected future capabilities! We had about 20 active bots at all times -  walking through a packed crowd,

While we were busy making its walk more robust for 10/10, we’ve also been working on additional pieces of autonomy for Optimus! The absence of (useful) GPS in most indoor environments makes visual navigation central for humanoids. Using its 2D cameras, Optimus can now navigate

In a couple weeks, I’ll finally be pledging allegiance to the American flag 🇺🇸 — what better and prouder time to do so. As a European, this election cycle meant so much to me. Growing up in the beautiful Old World, full of so many people I love, I’ve seen it increasingly plagued

Our new hand/forearm with double the number of degrees of freedom now in action on the bot! There’s 22 DoFs on the hand, and 3 on the wrist/forearm. This little video was made last night in the lab (teleoperated) and is real-time. Gives us confidence that we’ll very soon be

Tesla is where real-world AI is happening. These runs are on mulched ground, where I’ve myself slipped before. What’s really crazy here is that for these, Optimus is actually blind! Keeping its balance without video (yet), only other on-board sensors consumed by a neural net

Merry Christmas everyone 🎅🤖🎄

I came to the US in 2014 on a H1-B, with several years of prior experience as a C/C++ programmer. A “skilled white European immigrant” as some seem to call it recently here. Over the years, I’ve had the chance to work alongside absolutely exceptional so-called “skilled Indian

Our latest walk! Straight knees, smoother heel-to-toe gait & arms sway, just chilling around. Entirely trained in simulation with RL.

This weekend, I drove to Napa and back - close to 200 miles - on FSD. I think I had max a couple interventions and they were both comfort-related, meaning not necessary per se. My car took me through my neighborhood’s winding, hilly streets, got on the highway, navigated San
