Musk stepped aside to allow the first iteration of its robot to walk out onto the stage at the beginning of the event.
Unlike last year, the robot was not a human in a costume. It was the first time it didn't have any mechanical mechanisms or cables.
The robot is moving.
The goal of the demo and subsequent presentation was to show more progress in the field. Anything beyond a human in a costume is progress. The event was supposed to telegraph where the company is headed, shore up confidence in its trajectory, and recruit the talent it needs to further the program.
There is a display of the robot's specifications.
The first-gen prototype, which Musk referred to as "Bumble C", will evolve into the larger-than-life character. The eventual robot will be able to walk and stay balanced, carry a 20-pound bag and use tools. The 2.3 kilowatt hour battery pack is ideal for about a full day's worth of work, according to one employee.
The second bot, which didn't have the same functions as the Bumble C, had a sleek look. The bot was brought out on stage.
The specifications of the robot have changed. The bot's weight has gone up from 125 to 160 pounds.
The Autopilot strategy was one of the most interesting parts of theTesla bot road show.
The company uses its energy products and components for the bot. The computer used in the cars is in the robot. The hardware and software used in the advanced driver assistance system is being tapped for the bot. The company said that it's important to protect both the robot and the people around it, which is why the robot is equipped with a number of security features.
The big question is if all of these efficiency will result in a robot that works. Musk thinks it is possible that the price of the product will be less than $20,000.
Musk said at the end of the show that the bot would start small.
Musk said that they would start with simple tests. It could be just loading a part you saw in the video.
We just want to make basic humanoid work well and our goal is to get to a useful humanoid robot as quickly as possible.
