Calix comes from Latin, meaning cup.
Calix is a robot designed to carry small objects—like a cup—while autonomously following a black line. When most people think about robotics, they imagine machines helping with household chores. Calix is a simple example of that vision brought to life. You can place a cup on it in the kitchen, and it will deliver the cup to the end of the black line!
The robot is powered by two SPIKE Prime medium motors for movement, and it uses a color sensor to follow the line precisely. At the front, a large motor connected to a gear system lifts and lowers the cup, allowing for easy pickup and delivery.
Calix is an elegant demonstration of how even simple robots can be designed to perform useful tasks—making robotics more approachable and practical for everyday life.
