This week I worked a lot on making finalize subsystems of the chip sorter. The two major accomplishments are full 3d printed and assembled chip hopper and and working color sensing. Both components are functional and are able to sort chips by color. Current work is focused on building the conveyor between the hopper under the table and the color sensing so that it is fully working for the demo.
Progress remains slightly behind the original schedule because of the 3d printing failure but the color sensing has been a big leap back to being on time.
Below are the working hopper with chips being passed through it and the color sensing with the arduinos to release chips into their proper storage.
