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.

The kinesthetic and memory game works with a program you can download from here. In these instructions you will see the 7 modules from which it is built:

• Touch sensor module;

• Ultrasonic module;

• Gyro module;

• Color module;

• Lever module;

• Medium motor module;

• Base module.

This robot is meant to be very modular and to enable its owner to upgrade it and modify it.

This construction demonstrates one way of using а rack with a gear wheel. It allows to turn circular motion in to a liniar one.

"Bot. Spy Bot."

Many of us are fascinated by the idea of spies. Movies for "spies" are also very popular and if you haven't watched them check out the 007 movies. These here are building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms robot with two touch sensors and one ultrasonic. It could be used as a spy - sneaking closer to you and detecting if you move or if you touch it. The whole idea for this robot came from NXT when there were sound sensors. Currently, there are no sound sensors in the EV3 set, but the robot could again be quite fun to program. 

It moves and it collects. It collects objects.

These are building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms robot that could collect objects. It is not actually catching them and that's why we call it "Simple Catch Bot". The general case is to program it to move on the floor and collect some of the Mindstorms wheels and tires coming with the 45544, 45560 or 31313 LEGO sets.   

Instructions for building a steering chassis from LEGO EV3 Mindstorms. It uses EV3 Large motor to power the rear wheels and EV3 Medium motor for the steering mechanism. Find building instructions for the remote control here.

This is one of the robots used in World Robotics Olympiad. It uses chains to move ping pong balls out of a container.

A LEGO Mindstorms construction for taking loops. Uses the same principle as a carabiner.

The MiniBox box robot features a unique design with three perpendicularly rotating gearwheels, which simplifies the attachment design process. This setup allows teams to easily create and connect attachments on multiple sides, making it quick to adjust the robot for various tasks.

Its structure includes walls with a maximum attachable surface area, offering flexibility in attachment placement. This extensive surface allows for secure connections, so teams can experiment with different attachment configurations.

The MiniBox’s compact size is best suited for smaller, lightweight attachments. When working with larger attachments, its balance and stability can be affected, limiting its effectiveness in tasks that require more substantial setups.

In the LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor set there is only one color sensor. The original Gazon is build from LEGO Education SPIKE Prime where there are two light sensors. The idea behind this robot is to be able to build it from Robot Inventor and to use it during FIRST LEGO League competitions

Rollbar is a handy device, which only purpose is to measure lengths. Its main purpose is to measure curved lines.

It's designed for right-handed people, but with some small adjustments, it could fit any palm.

The robot uses two Large Mindstorms EV3 Motors to open and close its shell. On the top of the shell are used four hoses, that can be reshaped to form different shell styles. It also uses two black bent beams for eyebrows, that can be moved to change the expression of the clam. A Castor Ball is used to represent its pearl.

Building instructions for the robot used in WRO 2014. It is a small robot with two light sensors and could be used for collecting elements. 

The robot is built from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts. 

This is an attachment that accomplishes a mission. But they all do. This attachment is special as it is a Glide pinless attachment. It teachers the principles of building attachments that could be easily glided onto the robot and allow for quick changes of different attachments. It is designed for the

This robot attachment could be used to throw objects. It's built with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The goal of the attachment is to demonstrate a principle and one example of an attachment for throwing. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

These are building instructions for Workshop Crane with LEGO WeDo 2.0

This is a robot attachment that could be placed on the side of a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime parts and could be used in competitions in robotics like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The goal of the attachment is to demonstrate the principle and example of an attachment on the side of the robot. This specific robot attachment can lift objects. It's designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. Check the courses in which this attachment is used for more information and tutorials on how to use it.

This is a distance sensor attachment for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. This attachment is place on the robot whenever we want to work with the LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Distance Sensor.

This module is meant to be used in EV3 Kinesthetic and Memory Game and is attached to the base of the robot. This module uses the ultrasonic sensor to detect the hands of the player. Attention must be paid to where the module is attached since it can be activated by accident if the player reaches for another module over this one.
