Musek’s new robot will also jump for rolls

Remember Kryten of the Red Dwarf? A robotic android with a human figure who was designed to performing basic household tasks? We have seen a lot of similar concepts and prototypes in the real world in recent years. And now comes another. Elon Musk, among others the head of Tesla, presented a robotic servant at a recent AI conference, which will be similar to Kryten in many ways. His name is Tesla Bot.

In terms of design, it looks much more elegant than the legendary serial character, however, the basic purpose should have the same. “If you tell him go shopping to the storeor maybe take a bolt, wrench and help you with car repair. He should be able to do these tasks, ”the visionary entrepreneur described the new product he will be tasked with performing routine or dangerous tasks. In addition to the list of specifications, the several-minute presentation of the new robotic assistant was humorous and there were also allusions to the rebellion of technology.

“The prototype should be ready sometime next year. Tesla Bot will be built as friendly. Its technical parameters are set so that you can run away from it. You never know, ”the eccentric Musk laughed at the audience. The gray-white robot can move at a speed of 5 miles per hour, that is about 8 km / h. The weight will be approximately 60 kilograms, the height 180 centimeters and in the outstretched arms, during deadlift and during normal carrying, this assistant can handle four, seventy or twenty kilograms of load.

Tesla Bot will, of course crammed with AI technologies, which include neural networks, machine learning or DOJO training, a new software learning process of Tesla. The futuristic helper will be capable of autonomous movement and navigation. The “head” of the robot should be for the purpose of interaction with humans display for displaying important information. Of course, voice communication is also considered.
