Meet the LEGO Sorting Dream Team
Before getting into the details of each part and the challenges they faced, let’s take a look at the overall setup that makes the LEGO-sorting journey come to life.
It’s time to introduce the mechanical stars of the show making this whole LEGO-sorting journey come to life:
The Grabber
Plunges into the chaotic sea of bricks and picks up the goods. It’s got one job—and I'm quite happy with it.
The Shakers
Two synchronized heroes that catch the bricks from the Grabber and line up the bricks like pros. They even detect what’s there, prepping each row for perfect sorting.
The Mover
A fully 3D-printed belt that smoothly delivers bricks right under the camera. It’s like a red carpet for LEGO pieces.
The Mobile App
Choose your sorting mode, hit go, and watch your LEGO pile start to organize itself—all from your phone. Spoiler; it get's freaking hot running all the AI for a couple of hours ...
Pinball Palace
This one’s a little wild. Imagine a pinball machine meets LEGO sorter. It's not on camera yet, but it’s the final stage of sorting—flicking each piece into its perfect bin.
Stay tuned for some moving parts next time!
