I’m so glad Tesla is finally putting out videos showing the work that goes into their products. Honestly, we used to build stuff in America until outsourcing became a thing. Glad to see vertical integration at Tesla and looks like everyone is going back to actually making stuff. Tesla - never stop improving.
It’s a recruitment video
They are just bolting together components that are no doubt made in China.
Tesla needs small American companies to make these products,so they can grow.
showing a cgi robot walking, well dong,
Elephant Max the machinist and the thief everything that Tesla represents as his own image is a lie in the USA everyone has already understood that Elephant Musk is a thief
Can’t wait to see the progress after a year, they did so much from nothing after only 6 months!!!! Insane team!
Edit: Love to see so many haters supporting Tesla and watching all their accomplishments! Its new technology and lots of individual workers trying their best to improve the lives of all of us on earth!
Nothing to see here. It's a blatant copy of the open source BLDC actuators.
In a year they will come up with another scam just to cover this one, same as this BS covers for Autopilot being 2005 cruise control.
@@NeuroScientician saying autopilot is just cruise control tells everyone here that you’re clueless.
@@fredbloggs5902 you realize autopilot is *literally* adaptive CC and lane keep assist right?
Why do you think they had nothing 6 months ago? Just because they "revealed" a guy in a costume doesn't mean that they hadn't already been working on the robot for months or even years prior
I love how they integrated the motor vertically instead of horizontally, it is usual that the axis of the motor is the axis of rotation of the joint, but in this case the motor goes vertical to transform the movement from rotary to linear with a gearbox , similar to a muscle, in the university it is usual that almost everyone does it the other way, it really did not occur to any of us in my class at the university and neither did any professor. Really smart.
Linear motors aren’t new technology
@@myrobotisgas yet nobody is using them correctly it seems. Fascinating what people with real talent can do with things “that have been around forever”.
It is true that rotary actuators are more common. But if you do robotics, you are probably familiar with the robots from Boston Dynamics. Even their four-legged Spot robot uses linear actuators to drive its knees.
That's not what "vertical integration" means lol...
@@cogoid actually Boston uses hydraulic systems for the linear actuators used on stuff like atlas.
Very responsise and powerful for sure but take basically most of the room in the bot and blow out every so often. Not great for sustained operations.
Well done to the Tesla Team, it is so fantastic and unique to see the real manufacturing and development of Tesla which is worldwide unique and groundbreaking in automotive and robotics.
Love all these new videos Tesla is producing! ❤

i agree! good work guys.
agreed! In 3 years they've managed to do almost as much as a single first-year robotics student could in 6 months :)
@@sknight8621 and looking more stiff and clumsy from what some Chinese toy company offers.
How could you congratulate a company who just quietly signed a multi year contract with China's leading lithium supplier? Are you aware that the build back better plan completely funds Tesla? Tesla is a burden on the tax cattle.
The Tesla bot is closer than most people realize. It will completely catch the world off guard.
🤣🤣... It's nowhere near... Not even close to Asimo let alone Boston Dynamics.
@@Robert-cu9bm the hardest part about a robot that can do all human tasks is the artificial intelligence, the brain. That’s why Boston dynamics continues, showing the same shit for the last 10 years because the movement of the body to actuators. That’s the easy part. Boston dynamics doesn’t have the artificial intelligence super computer and software engineers that Tesla does that is the massive difference. They will easily catch up in the body and movement of the robot. All of Boston dynamics robotic movements are pre-programmed movements
@@zandercerlong7238 Lol. What's the Tesla AI top product?
@@Robert-cu9bm Neither of those are anywhere near Tesla’s AI. Tesla has already built millions of autonomous robots being used everyday in the real world.
@@Robert-cu9bm Boston dynamics design to be sold for 500k each;
Tesla is designing for mass production.
It's like comparing prototypes of cars. The challenging bit is efficient, economical, mass production.
I wouldn't expect it to match BD
Brilliant, thanks - as it happens, my age is outside the career-seeking range - but half a century or so ago, I would have certainly applied! Best, Carlo
Those actuators are amazing all custom cad parts built by hand 👌 love it I need to spend a month with the team definitely getting it done ✅#11
Having grown up with these machines populating fiction, the reality finally coming to fruition is mind boggling.
Going back can be mind boggling. Cities built ontop of cities. Old meeting grounds using steam train pull systems. I can waffle forever! To imagine we actually lose river systems and we completely forget entrances to bussling places gets me just as excited. The future is, fingers crossed, an easier and less work intensive existence which if we look back... We've been heading towards this whole time!
we have had Practical robots since the 1950's , DiVinci had his Clockwork robot.
Have you watched Boston Dynamics? ua-cam.com/video/-e1_QhJ1EhQ/v-deo.html
The 'T' in T-800 / T-1000 means Tesla.
Lol tesla can’t even release a version of their driving software that doesn’t require intervention every 5 minutes. Any humanoid robot they come up with is going to be hilariously bad lol
I'm glad you guys figured out you put the motor inside the strain wave drive, opposed to outside, like all the other people that do it that way. You guys are super smart.
More of this please!!!
The most important thing is that, Tesla is the only company with money, resources and talent that is devoted to making humanoid robots with the purpose of becoming a future reality, they are the only ones with an actual plan of making humanoids capable of doing real jobs and playing a part in human life, there is no one else, yes there is Honda, Hyundai/Boston Dynamics but they are not devoted to building humanoids as products, it's more of a side story for them than the real plan.
I think long term the main "mission" is for laying out and wiring up solar panels on Mars.
I’m totally qualified for that “Cleaning Metal With Rag” job.
Robots are tough (in the design context) and it looks like Tesla is progressing well. One thing Boston Dynamics has seemed to accomplish is speed and agility. Though I'm sure Tesla is doing their best at cracking that egg as well.
😂 good luck BostonDynamics scaling up production without experience 😂 hahahaha
Boston dynamics will be better for agility for a long period of time imo. Where Tesla will beat them is cost and availability.
Boston Dynamics has some amazing demonstration videos, but as I understand things, those videos are scripted, and the robots in them are following instructions. Plus they often have several takes to get things right.
@@grahammonk8013
Scripted like a FSD demonstration?🤔
Yes, when we talk about their humanoid robot, Atlas, it seems to be more research. An early Optimus working in a factory probably don't need to jumps and flips so I guess BD Atlas will be more agile than Optiumus just because it isn't a focus for Optimus.
Can't wait to see Optimus a few years from now, just imagine what the progress will be by then!!!
Or you can see actual humanoid robots now ua-cam.com/video/-e1_QhJ1EhQ/v-deo.html maybe in the future tesla will show something interesting, but for now tesla bot is still a joke.
Same as now.
@Ken Why so much positivity? maybe all tesla lovers should calm down until tesla will actually show something? Reality is that tesla bot barely walks on flat hard surface for now, we saw such "robots" for literally 30 years...
@@ekstrapolatoraproksymujacy412 Agree. Students do more advanced stuff today.
@Ken In a world where humanoid robots are ubiquitous, what will you be doing while the robot is cleaning your house, teaching your children and walking your dog?
Pretty wild the leaps they make in such a short amount of time with such a high level of talent with their engineers.
What in this video makes you think they have made a leap?
Do you know when they started working on the robot? Could've been years ago
@@Ample17 not a leap, but some progress which is something
@@aqeelraja4750 something is not enough to go on for investment decisions tho. Many people are factoring in the robot division into their valuation of the company which is a mistake. It will not yield any Profit for many years.
I just want retail Investors to be clear on that.
The only thing that comes close to a robot near this video is you!
Amazing job Tesla! I hope to be part of the team one day.

To see this build come together, the direction it is going, amazing.
Amazing, please, more of these update videos throughout the life of the build.
this is so inspiring to see these guys bringing an idea to life
Lmao xd something that exists for 10+ years and is that far behind other companies 😂
Wow making an actuator. The robot walking past is just CGI
@@BombLobster there is literally no innovation. :D it's not hate, stop being ignorant and use your brain.
Hooray , way to go , the future is around the corner for the Tesla bot team !
Another great video! Thank you! 🙏🏼
The Tesla Engineering Team Are Amazing And Awesome People Doing Things Never Imagined To Be Possible - I await an update to these masterpiece in the near future.
Please share more of these videos.
Im so fking excited. You guys are so fricking talented, keep up the amazing work. Keep those talented engineers coming! Can't wait for the next Tesla AI Day and see whats the bot up to. Again, keep up the amazing stuff, you guys are awesome 🤖❤️
It's amazing that Tesla is giving so much visibility to the sausage-making. Smart for recruiting.
Four key points...
1.The video is created to give the talented candidate a walk through as though the team members were describing their frontier work to you alone.
2. Vertical design means system specs drive the design of the bespoke subsystems. In contrast, other robot teams build from a catalog of available components. Tesla engineers design and build everything exactly as required by the system - with manufacturing at scale always a constraint.
3. Why are the actuators and not the sensors highlighted? Because the sensors simply feed raw data to the computers, whose design is done by software engineers - shared with the vehicle team. What Tesla is recruiting for here are English-speaking hardware engineers - the best in the world.
4. Why are only the small parts shown? Because that's how top down specifications lead to bottom up realization. Hardware engineers solve the whole system in very small steps and solutions.
You've invented motors. good job team.
Hell yeah! Keep up the good work, and progress.. coming together for sure
Keep kicking ass Tesla team !
So excited to see the T-800 come into existence. Can`t wait to see it in action in the battle field. Tesla is the true inspiration.
just wow!!!! amaziing!!! more of these videos please! I think its a best advertisement and information for Tesla Bot Team!!! Looking forward to the development!
Great work, Bot team a short video of the bot in action with the new actuators, please.
Happy that Tesla is doing their marketing! (making videos from inside the company) Can't wait to see the progress made with the tesla bot. 😁
I love that engineers are speaking. Not Product Managers. You know... the people who make it happen. Not people hitching a ride on their success. That is why engineers love Tesla and SpaceX. No bullshit.
Good job keep Us updated regarding the teslabot .
I love Boston dynamics alot, but this is impressive for only about 8 months of work.... I mean what will it be in 2 3 years... amazing.
yes finally we get original Tesla videos!!
Love it!!!
Rooting for you guys. Make history!
GREAT JOB 👏 👏👏YOU GUYS ARE AN AMAZING TEAM 🤗👍💚💚💚
Looks fun to work there for sure!! 😃
YOU GUYS ARE NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING, THANK YOU!!!;)
This is great motivation to study for my upcoming exams for electrical engineering! ^^
Great to see you do something inferior to what Honda did 20 years ago.
is it just me or are they about 10 years behind Boston Dynamics ? this looks like the DARPA challenge type robot from say 2013ish
Steady process is what matters, well done Tesla! 📈
Good to see this hardware progress… Tesla will make more compact and practical motors and actuators than other manufacturers.
Great update, thanks
Promising! Way to go Tesla! We need more of such videos❤
1:02 This is probably the coolest thing in the video. Its not a drill bit, but a transmission for the motor. its been designed to be housed inside the shaft of the motor itself. its super compact with insane torque. They have a video of one of these lifting a piono rather fast and rather gracefully. quite impressive.
Love that you are uploading videos more freqent now!
Nice work... some day I would like to work for company like that...
Amazing job!😊
It’s just amazing what Tesla is doing for the future. Truly the most innovative company of our time.
Ok, no kidding I was looking for this video on Tesla's channel yesterday but couldn't find it LOL
Give us more of these amazing videos PLEASE! So good!
Good work team!
Amazing work Tesla, the future is for the taking, grab it with both hands.
Great update , thank you. Very impressive
remember torso movement is very important in order to keep it stable
I really like this content flow from the team, keep it up!!!
I am loving these Tesla vids! 🤖
Thanks for covering these Tesla Details for us! :)
Best company in the world ⚡️
Clueless
Nice to see geeks well funded!
Keep posting this stuff on all social media avenues
I love these recruiting videos!
I am so hyped! Thank you so much! You're doing a great job!
More engineering flexing. I like
I would LOVE to work for Tesla. Working with so many other talented engineers, designers, and tool makers would be incredible.
Again, world changing product. Once these robots are on the assembly line building the cars, semis , heck even themselves ?? That will be about the time we leave for Mars. I am all in on TSLA . Great job and continued success .
I've missed my vocation. I NEED to work on this kind of project. A lotta super interesting thing to learn doing this. Would not count the hours!

Astounding pace of development and progress. Vertical integration and knowhow of real AI gives Tesla the leap ahead.
Do you remember the movie „Short Circuit“ from 1986?
Maybe not 😉.
In Germany it was titled „Nummer 5 lebt“ (Number 5 is alive). Which was very entertaining at that time, with a great message and special effects (no CGI at that time).
I see TeslaBot getting as good or better… time will tell.
My buddy named his Model S "Johnny 5"
@@MsAngrybutterfly
Yeah, great- at the end of the film, the robot names himself „Johnny 5“ because he likes a song called „Who‘s Johnny“.
The guitarist John William Lowery gave himself the artist name „John 5“ when he joined the band Marilyn Manson in 1998 😉.
@Ken Thanks for the tipp. Haven’t seen that movie yet. I hope, I‘ll find it somewhere.
@Ken
.. I watched it. Cool movie!
I like the sort of happy end!
Tesla Rocks ... fantastic teams !!! All Inhouse Baby ..
Tesla Bot seems like a dream. I really want to see this thing walking.
This would be an amazing team to be a part of. Designing the future has been a goal of mine since I was a kid. So many ideas…
Humanoid robots are old technology
@@kingiam9271 I agree. There are so many creatively versatile implementations for this tech, along with some neural tech, and other odds and ends… like I said, sooooo many ideas… I have literally dreamed about ideas working with this type of team and tech.
@@kingiam9271 like using electroactive polymers instead of a mechanical drive system? Or incorporating a faraday into the outer materials to form an inner protective layer? How about connecting NeuraLink to a “T-Series 3” ( my attempt at naming the future of robotic tech)… bot? Joints using ferrofluid to help manage impact? Optical system by Red Camera Technology? 8k VR FPV?
@@PapaKayOh sounds like a neat hobby. But i don't see any real world applications for a humanoid robot. Other than companionship, like a sex robot. Humanoid robot would not be worth the cost in any other applications.
@Ken what you just described is a fantasy that makes no sense. Would you consider building a robot to sweep your floors? Or build a preprogrammed robot that sweeps your floors like a Roomba? The choice is obvious. Small preprogrammed robots are better. Like a droid preprogrammed to walk your dogs along a certain route would hit the market wayyy sooner than an AI humanoid robot. By the time a humanoid robot is functioning we won't need it
Awesome work. Love seeing the custom harmonic drives & roller screws being integrated directly into the motors. We used the same tech on the LUKE Arm.
Any chance there will be one of these linear actuators used to independently steer each of the four wheels on the Cybertruck?
Unlikely for many reasons. But could show up in future Tesla and SpaceX products.
@@andrasbiro3007 I'd bet they are already using something similar, but far larger, to steer the Raptor engines.
@@keithviolette5870
They can do that independently of the robot. Elon talked about electric actuators for Starship long before the robot project started.
I saw the roller screws @ 1:03 but did not see harmonic drive components.
@@ricinro you can see a flex spline at 22 seconds.
The linear actuators use roller screws, the rotary joints use harmonic drives. 5 harmonic drives are used in the LUKE Arm that I helped design, tightly integrated with customized brushless servo motors.
I'd say a good target will be 2030! Let's go TESLA.
Wow, such a diverse team 😮💨
Keep it up. You've got a long way to catch up to Boston Dynamics
Can Boston Dynamics robots drive on sight only? Tesla Bots do everyday.

With all the technological expertise we got nowadays, actually an autonomous forklift would make more commercial sense than the Bot.
Sound like what Amazon has in its warehouses.
Not so good for working on Mars.
@@favesongslist a large Martian colony in the near future, is not economical viable. Don't fall for all those SpaceX CGI hype videos about an hypothetical Martian colony. The same as using a Rocket for point to point traveling, or the Hyperloop.
@@RogerM88 i never thought Mars was about money. Starship is one amazing development for someone that has already disrupted space flight and NASA has paid Billions to land people on the Moon, after being currently the only manned launch capability in the USA; that lands it first stages, I guess to you that is all hype.
@@favesongslist Starship has many design issues for Crewed missions beyond Earth's Orbit. Don't get easily hyped with all the claims. For a reason NASA Engineers figured out the most efficient and safer way for Crew missions it's a modular approach. Starship is like a 3 in 1 vessel, Ascent module, Spaceship, and Lander, that adds too much complexity for the mission. I strongly believe, a Crewed mission to Mars will be made with a modular Spaceship assembled at LEO, using Nuclear engines, for a faster interplanetary voyage, while landing on Mars in a smaller compact module. As for cargo missions, Starship could have some application, but the main engines being so close to the ground, plus it colossal size to be refueld beyond Earth, could mean it not being used far from LEO. And for commercial applications to LEO, it would need to have a functional payload hatch, that would require structural reinforcement of the hull adding more dry weight and requiring extra maneuvering to deploy the satellites or probes without a Canadarm. Not a surprise SpaceX is now considering a dispenser system. In conclusion, not a surprise Starship be essentially used for Starlink missions.
@@RogerM88 Interesting reply. Totally agree that Starship has many design issue that need resolving and that many initial flights will be to launch V2 Starlinks before testing the tricky landings, then the LEO refueling issue that thankfully SpaceX have been working with NASA for years now, NASA have just recently given SpaceX an extended additional Lunar Starship contract so must be fairy sure there are no major show stoppers.
SpaceX so far have been refused access to nuclear fuel so i do not see that being a viable way forward this decade at least, but like you would like to see this move forward. Right now with all the raptor improvements in performance I do not see additional weight required for any reinforcements being an issue. I do not believe we will see a crew larger than around 16 flying to Mars in maybe NET 2029, That should not require a fully recyclable life support system, beyond what is already proven on the ISS. Still a lot of logistics support from unmanned one way robotic missions first.
Keep it up with these videos. That's good for the Tesla brand!
A robot from the same people who can’t get automatic windshield wipers to work, can’t wait! 🤦🏼♂️
Looking forward to more Robotic Breakthroughs 🙂
