General-purpose humanoid · Third generation

Optimus/GEN 3

A body built for the work nobody should have to repeat.

Sixty degrees of freedom, fingertips that feel, and a mind that learns a new task from a single demonstration. Built to share your floor — not to replace the people on it.

01 — Why a humanoid

Why a humanoid

Our world was built around two hands, two feet and eye-level shelves. Instead of rebuilding every warehouse, kitchen and workshop for machines, we built a machine for the world as it is.

Optimus Gen 3 climbs the same stairs, opens the same doors and uses the same tools your team already owns. No custom fixtures, no fenced-off cells, no retooling budget.

of manual tasks in our pilot sites were completed without any change to the workspace.

is typically all it takes to teach a new pick-and-place routine by showing, not coding.

Force-limited joints and 360° awareness let it work safely alongside people.

02 — The machine

Four systems.
One body.

Select a hotspot or a system to open its readout. Every component is designed, assembled and tested in-house.

Sees in depth. Feels in detail.

Eight synchronized cameras and two depth sensors build a live 3D map of the room, while pressure-sensitive fingertips report grip force a hundred times a second — enough to hold an egg or a power drill with the same hand.

03 — Capabilities

Learns like an apprentice.
Works like a veteran.

16DoF per hand

Human-grade dexterity

Tendon-driven fingers with an opposable thumb turn keys, fold laundry, strip wire and thread bolts. Grip force adapts in real time, from 0.4 N to 180 N.

Any terrain

Stairs, ramps, gravel and wet floors. Recovers balance from a 60 N push.

Teach by showing

Demonstrate a task once. Optimus rehearses in simulation overnight and arrives fluent the next shift.

Quiet by design

Low-backlash actuators run quieter than a normal conversation — at home in hospitals, offices and living rooms.

05 — Deployment

Where it clocks in.

Long warehouse aisle lined with shelving and stacked boxes

Totes, cartons and the night shift nobody wants.

Optimus moves between racks, conveyors and carts built for people. It picks mixed SKUs, builds pallets and handles returns — and hands exceptions to a human supervisor.

  • Works with existing WMS via open API
  • Barcode, RFID and visual SKU recognition
  • Two units swap batteries for continuous cover

06 — Lineage

Three generations.
Thousands of falls.

Every generation was shaped by hours in real workplaces — not just a lab.

2022

Gen 1 prototype

First walking frame. Rigid hands, tethered power, 28 degrees of freedom.

2024

Gen 2 field pilots

Untethered. 11-DoF hands. 30,000 hours logged in partner warehouses.

Frequently
asked.

Still curious? Email [email protected].

Is the reservation deposit refundable?

Yes. The $500 deposit is fully refundable at any time before your purchase agreement is signed. Submitting the form on this page takes no payment at all. Details are in our Reservation & Refund Policy.

When will units ship?

First business and research deliveries are planned for 2027, in reservation order and region by region. We'll give you an estimated delivery window when we confirm your reservation, and update you if it changes.

Is it safe to work next to people?

Optimus Gen 3 uses force- and speed-limited joints, 360° person detection, a physical emergency stop and a wireless stop. It is designed for collaborative operation, and every deployment includes a site risk assessment before go-live.

Does it need the internet or a cloud connection?

No. Perception, planning and control run on the robot. A connection is only needed for software updates, fleet dashboards and optional skill sharing — which you can turn off.

What happens to camera data?

Video is processed on-device by default and is not uploaded. You can choose to share anonymized clips to improve skills. Home assist units have physical privacy shutters on every camera.

How do I teach it a new task?

Demonstrate the task once while wearing the tracking gloves, or guide the robot's hands directly. Optimus practices in simulation and asks for confirmation before running the new skill on the floor.

What about maintenance and warranty?

Batteries, hands and feet are modular and field-replaceable. Lab units include a 12-month warranty; Work and Fleet units include 36 months with advance replacement.
