Forerunner, One of Tesla's Strong Competitors, Enters the Field

China-based Kepler company is launching its humanoid robot called Forerunner with a price tag of $ 30,000. This robot is an artificial intelligence product that will compete with Tesla's Optimus model.

While human-like robotic technologies are becoming popular among global companies, the Chinese robotics company Kepler is also preparing to make a name for itself in this field. Kepler will introduce its Forerunner humanoid robot at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024 in Las Vegas. The company claims that the general-purpose Forerunner series offers body movements, precise hand control and advanced visual perception capabilities, making it a rival to Tesla's Optimus model.

Forerunner is 178 cm tall and weighs 85 kg and is equipped with a smart and agile hand with 12 degrees of freedom. The company states that the robot demonstrates superior performance in navigating difficult terrain, obstacle avoidance, hand manipulation, lifting and carrying heavy objects, precise hand-eye coordination and intelligent interactive communication.

Forerunner is equipped with advanced actuators and is capable of precise control, rapid response and ability to accomplish complex tasks. The robot has a large set of sensors to understand its surroundings, allowing it to navigate harsh environments through Kepler's proprietary Nebula AI system.
