"One retrieves ingredients from climate-controlled silos, another works over a heating element, and within minutes, a perfectly assembled, hot meal is delivered to a collection window. There are no chefs, no line cooks, and no human intervention whatsoever. This is the Circus Autonomy One, a robot designed with a single, ambitious goal: to automate every step of the food production process, from inventory management to cooking and even cleaning."
"They are not wrong, but that is an incredibly sanitized way of looking at what is essentially a job-elimination machine. The CA-1 is a marvel of industrial design, a self-contained unit powered by a proprietary AI called CircusOS that makes adaptive decisions in real time. With its pilot program already running in German REWE supermarkets, this isn't some vaporware concept sitting in a lab."
Circus Autonomy One fits within seven square meters and uses two robotic arms, climate-controlled silos, and an integrated dishwasher to automate cooking, assembly, inventory, and cleaning. The unit can produce about 120 dishes per hour, roughly one meal every 30 seconds, from a compact, closed-loop system. Circus SE positions the CA-1 as a solution to labor shortages and efficiency demands, while critics characterize it as a job-elimination machine. The system runs on proprietary CircusOS AI, adapts in real time, and is commercially piloted in German REWE supermarkets.
