Many companies in the world, besides looking for finance to sustain their projects, also want to contribute to the world in various possible areas, e.g Tesla, who have contributed with rechargeable electric cars that try to replace those that use gasoline In fact, at the moment they are working on an experiment that involves humanoid robots and the most interesting thing is that the owner of the company, Elon Musk, has already put a price on it.
project known as Optimus It’s a way to have a functional robot that can take the owner’s commands, although with actions that are on the simple side for now, to date it hasn’t been possible to get anything like the futuristic movies that we have. They represent the individual thoughts of these machines. For this reason, it has been established that their starting price will be half of that of an electric car, which is still a large sum.
The complexity per unit mass is much higher with humanoid robots, but still I think it costs less than half of a car.

Keeping the information in mind, it is mentioned that the price will be between $25,000 or $30,000. America, only half the price of the basic version of its rechargeable car. Of course, the owner of the company mentioned that this may decrease over time, especially when new versions are released. The goal is to have an accessible image and so that most homes can get their own robot with functions that are simple for now but will increase as it progresses.
It is worth mentioning that it will not be easy Tesla Compete in this market, there are more products like the Figure 01, an Android that promises to be a bit better and has been developed by niche researchers for some time. However, it’s possible that we won’t see them sold for at least five years, especially given an acceptable and attractive configuration of artificial intelligence.

Editor’s note: It would be interesting if they gave a demonstration of how Optimus works in his various activities. I wouldn’t doubt that millionaires are going to get a pair of these as soon as they go on sale to the public.
