Dolls instead of real robots

Presumably Tesla is trying to draw more attention to Optimus in this way because the reputation of these cars has now suffered somewhat after the last presentation. It turned out that they were not autonomous as the company tried to portray, but instead were remotely controlled by humans, he writes 24 Channels.

Basic details about the toy:

• The company describes it as a “mini autonomous assistant and humanoid friend.” The Tesla Bot toy is a 1:10 scale, collectible and playable action figure. It looks and moves just like a 2nd generation humanoid robot.
• The product has more than 40 separate parts and 20 connection points. Thus, the toy is highly mobile and can be placed in various positions and poses.
• The dimensions of the figure are 5.5 centimeters wide and 18.2 centimeters high. Weight – 48 grams.
• The kit includes a charging stand and a “cyber hammer” that the robot can hold in its hand.

The company’s website is Tesla Bot costs $40but we don’t have it in stock right now. It’s unclear whether they sold out quickly or are not yet on sale. It should be noted that previous similar products were swept away like lightning, so apparently this one was dismantled very quickly.
