U.S. moves to standardise autonomous vehicle identification lights with teal external lighting

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is moving to introduce teal external lights to show when an autonomous vehicle is operating in self-driving mode. A draft proposal sets requirements for visibility from the front, sides and rear, with a minimum mounting height of 15 inches, but makes the lighting optional. The draft also includes changes to safety rules to reflect autonomous vehicle designs, including deleting a turn-signal requirement that is hard to apply to vehicles without steering wheels.

Tesla humanoid Optimus enters initial production, but key hurdles still block commercial use

Tesla has begun initial production of its humanoid robot Optimus, but it still faces hurdles before it can be deployed in real industrial settings. Elon Musk (일론 머스크) has set late 2027 as the timing for deliveries to external customers. Tesla said robots from the Fremont line meet mass-production quality standards, though reaching output of 20,000 units a week may take at least a year. Key challenges include hands, durability, safety and AI training data.
