What is littlebits.
For this project we had to use parts from the vex kit and other parts that we could bring in or make from the 3d printer to make a marble sorter.
It had to sort 3 different types of marbles of our choice.
Vex tank treads with dividers serve as the rotor that allows only a marble at a time to exit the hopper and enter the sensor region.
It is a magical marble sorting machine using a color sensor fom adafruit type tcs34725 and a leonardo arduino from littlebits.
And it had to complete the process in under 2 minutes.
The machine sorts four different colors and it also counts the number of marbles per color.
The second button is used to start sorting marbles which are placed in the machine in random order.
