Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that the robot uses Tesla's artificial intelligence software and sensors similar to advanced driver assistance functions, and has the same technology as the FSD beta version.

As can be seen from the picture, compared with the previous concept version, the prototype looks more industrial style, there is no black-and-white color painting, and the parts are completely exposed. The right side of the following figure is the version to be mass-produced in the future.

At the scene of the event, Tesla's humanoid robot came out from behind the stage and made a dance move. After that, the company showed video clips of robots doing other tasks, such as picking up boxes and watering.

Finally, Tesla showed the shape of the robot that will be produced in mass production, but the function is not complete, it is only a simple display.

Tesla's target price for the Tianzhu humanoid robot "may be less than $20,000 (about 143000 yuan)," and future applications may include cooking, gardening and even companionship, Musk said. The robot could start production as early as next year.
