Robot overview

Optimus Gen 3 represents the transition from experimental prototype to a functional, scalable workforce. Developed with Tesla’s proprietary AI5 and AI6 architectures, Gen 3 is no longer a pre-programmed machine; it is a Physical AI platform that learns complex manipulation tasks by observation. Currently deployed across Tesla’s Gigafactories, it is the cornerstone of the world’s most advanced autonomous production lines.

Technical Breakthroughs

Human-Level Dexterity: The all-new 22-Degree-of-Freedom (DoF) hand assembly features forearm-mounted actuators and a high-strength tendon system, allowing for the fine motor control required to handle electrical connectors and fragile battery cells.
Tactile Intelligence: Integrated "squishy" sensor skin provides high-resolution haptic feedback, enabling the robot to "feel" surface texture and apply precise pressure without damaging delicate objects.
FSD-v15 Neural Brain: Utilizing the same end-to-end neural networks as Tesla’s Full Self-Driving vehicles, Optimus navigates unscripted, dynamic environments autonomously using only vision
Industrial Strength: Engineered for 24/7 operation with aerospace-grade materials, a 5–7 mph "jogging" gait, and a specialized thermal management system for high-output industrial environments.

Deployment

+ Scalability

Internal First: Currently performing real-world kitting, logistics, and assembly tasks at Giga Texas and Fremont.
Mass Production: High-volume production lines are active, targeting a scale of thousands of units for internal use through 2026.
External Availability: Commercial fleet orders are scheduled to open following internal validation, with a target price point aimed at disrupting traditional labor economics.
