American billionaire Elon Musk’s company, Tesla, is currently working on the humanoid robot Optimus. Musk has high hopes from this robot. The company is training this robot to do a variety of tasks—from practicing kung fu to handling household chores. Tesla has set a target of making one million such robots by 2030. Now, according to the latest information, the company can launch this robot in India also. A senior official of the company said that when the right time comes, this robot will also be introduced in India. Let’s take a look at the company’s plans to launch Optimus in India
When will Optimus robot come to India?
Isabel Fan, head of Tesla’s Asia-Pacific region, said mass production of the Optimus is scheduled to begin this year. He said that in future it will become an important part of our lives. He further said that when the right time comes, it will definitely be launched in India. “We want to bring it to India, and that’s our goal,” he said. Fan believes that robots will make human life easier. They will prove to be a beneficial option for humans, which will enable them to make better use of their time. Tesla executives said the robot could be used for a variety of tasks—including tasks that humans prefer to avoid doing due to their dangerous nature.
Optimus is being trained for these tasks
According to reports, the Optimus robot is being developed to handle logistics, healthcare and repetitive household tasks apart from dangerous tasks. It is designed to work exactly like humans. Many videos have surfaced in which robots have been shown walking and doing tasks whose actions are very similar to humans. Musk dreams that robots can help create a world that is free from poverty.
Musk aims to create an ‘army’ of robots
With Optimus, Musk intends to create an entire army of robots. Last year, Musk said that he intended to create a massive army of robots and that one million units of Optimus robots would be manufactured in the coming years. Musk said that Optimus could perhaps become Tesla’s most important project so far. The special thing is that from 2023 the company has accelerated its work on Optimus, and now the project has reached the testing stage. It works completely with the help of AI and does not require any human intervention for its control.
