This week I have been working on the design of the chip return. I have started printing small 3d printed prototypes to test how my mechanism will work. Below is an image of two of the pieces I’ve made. One is a track that lets a poker chip roll through it past the color sensor I am using to sort the chips. The other is a wheel that I will use to break up a bulk input of chips into a sequential order. I am currently designing the way chips will enter my sorting system, I am trying to do a similar idea to a basic coin separating machine but by color as all the poker chips are the same size. I am a little behind as we haven’t received our poker chips yet so I dont know they’re exact dimensions, which is important to some of my prints, so hopefully that will be delivered soon.
