Idea - Lego Color Sorter
I spent parts quarantine sorting my lego collection and realized that there should be a better way to do it. I thought that this would be a good opportunity to make a machine to sort my collection. Similar machines have been made; in the link below there is a video about a machine that sorts legos by type and depostis the legos into bins.
Here is a link to that video
in that video he identfys 3 main problems in sorting legos atomaticly They are
- geting a single peace at a time from a pile(the fillter)
- identify the peace in the video he uses ai I dont know what i will do for this yet(the sort)
- puting the items in there designated bins(the place)
I agree that these are the tree big chalinges in aotomated lego sorting
My Plan
my plan I have is broke into three problem into three parts the sort, the pick, and the place. my plan is to work on the Sort first then the Place and lastly the Fillter.
- The Sort -this is the device that identifys the lego brick as a color
- The Place -This is the device that will take the identifyed part and place it in its corisponding bin
- The fillter -The is the mecinsm that will take one peace from the pile
