Overview

Optimus is Tesla's general-purpose humanoid robot program, built on the same vision-based autonomy stack used in Tesla vehicles. Early units are deployed inside Tesla's own factories on repetitive material-handling tasks, with production ramping toward external deployment in manufacturing, logistics, and eventually the home.
