Elon Musk showed off a video of a Tesla robot folding a shirt, just months after both menial tasks and robotic technology were revealed.
A robot called “''tesla optimus,” is described as a “general purpose, bipedal” and “humanoid” robot that can perform “unsafe, repetitive, or tedious” tasks.
The bot made its first major public appearance in 2016. May 2023 They were then shown walking around and “learning about the real world.”
At the same time, a group of scientists and roboticists has developed a robot that can learn personal cleaning habits and techniques to properly organize living spaces and dispose of waste.
”Tidybot” includes input from engineers at Princeton University, Stanford University, and Columbia University, as well as support from Google and the Nueva School.
one of the engineers I posted about technology As early as May 2023.
It's unclear which technology was derived from the other, but it came just two months after Tesla Optimus revealed it could classify objects on its own.
”Optimus can now classify objects autonomously,” the company writes. X. “That neural network is fully trained end-to-end: video input, control output.”
By the second week of 2024, Musk released a video showing the same robot carefully removing a T-shirt from a laundry basket before gently folding it on a table.
“Optimus folds his shirt” Mr. Musk I have written.
The robot is seen carefully arranging the shirts on a table before starting its work, but it appears to be too strong for the complex task.
When Tidybot was released, engineers revealed how their robot could properly organize household items.
The robot worked by having the user enter (in text) a small sample of preferences that told the robot where to place the item.For example, “The yellow shirt goes in the drawer, the dark purple shirt goes in the closet.” abstract explained.
This allowed the robot to summarize a “large language model” and generalize the information to apply to other items it might encounter. So, in general, it can be summarized as “light-colored clothes go in the drawer, dark-colored clothes go in the closet.''
The robot was able to identify objects and containers through its image database. I mean, I was aware of what shirts and recycling bins looked like. “The robot then performs the cleaning task by repeatedly picking up the object, identifying it, and moving it to the desired container,” the document states.
The engineering team said this approach achieved an accuracy rating of 91.2% for invisible objects in the scenario. In real-world applications, the robot reportedly cleared 85% of objects accurately.
