Recently, Tesla has been at the forefront of humanoid robotics, revealing insights into its advanced technology through various patent filings related to its Optimus robot project.

Not long ago, Tesla unveiled "Optimus Gen 2," the newest version of its humanoid robot, designed to handle tedious tasks that humans typically perform.

This latest model represents a significant improvement over its predecessors, which fell short of expectations, bringing a new level of credibility to the initiative.

A notable innovation in Optimus Gen 2 is Tesla's use of proprietary, custom-designed actuators to operate the robot's limbs, reflecting the company's dedication to innovation and quality.

Tesla's recent patents provide a sneak peek into the advanced technology driving its humanoid robot initiative.

One particular patent discusses Tesla's 'actuator and actuator design methodology,' highlighting the technical expertise behind its robotic developments.
A system or methodology of controlling movement of a robot (600) using actuators, the system can include one or more first type of actuators (1002) positioned at torso, shoulder, and hip locations of the robot; one or more second type of actuators (1004) positioned at wrist locations of the robot; one or more third type of actuators (1006) positioned at the wrist locations of the robot; one or more fourth type of actuators (1008) positioned at elbow and ankle locations of the robot; one or more fifth type of actuators (1010) positioned at the torso location and the hip locations of the robot; and one or more sixth type of actuators (1012) positioned at knee locations and the hip locations of the robot.
Below are some illustrations from the patent application:
