A 4-5 year timeline for humanoids to impact national GDP? That's the latest prediction from Elon.
This implies deployment at a massive scale is happening very soon. Do you think the industry is on track for this, or is this timeline too aggressive?
Any thoughts?

Enter: planetary roller screws (PRS)
Unlike ball screws, PRS use threaded rollers instead of balls, increasing surface contact and load capacity—perfect for humanoids.
Think:
✔️ Higher force
✔️ Compact design
✔️ Greater durability
