Tesla's Latest Robot, Optimus, Caught Shining on the Dance Floor in Astonishing New Footage
Tesla Unveils Optimus Robot's Dance Moves in New Video
Tesla has shared a captivating new video of its Optimus humanoid robot, showcasing its advanced capabilities and wide range of movements, including dance moves. The video, which is approximately 42 seconds long, was shared by the company yesterday.
In the video, Optimus is seen performing a variety of dance moves, including ballet, the running man, and a variation of the "Dougie". The robot is able to balance itself during the dances without the need for a harness or any additional support, demonstrating its impressive stability.
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has announced his intention to have an Optimus dance troupe perform on stage at the Tesla shareholders meeting. However, the specific date for the 2025 meeting where the Optimus dance troupe may perform has not yet been announced.
The training of Optimus to dance may have involved the use of a bodysuit with motion dots, allowing for precise control and coordination of its movements.
The video serves as a testament to the progress Tesla has made with its Optimus project, a humanoid robot designed to assist with various tasks. It's a follow-up to an earlier teaser shared by Musk, further fuelling anticipation for the future of this ground-breaking technology.
The 2025 Tesla shareholders meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November 6, 2025. While there is no official confirmation of an Optimus dance troupe performing at this meeting, past Tesla shareholder meetings have included notable presentations and surprises related to the company's future projects.
