The Color Sorter

My group, consisting of myself, Luke and Amechi, built a color sorter for our group's final robot. The color sorter used visual technology to sense which color was being shown and temporarily saved it into the software. When the color block is placed in the slide, the robot remembers the order in which the colors were placed and moves along the tracks in order to place the colors in their own respective cups. The color sorter takes advantage of the visual sensor in order to sort colors with no regard to which order they are placed in.
Parts of the Robot:
-Tracks: Moves robotic slide across tracks
-Slide: Place where the colored blocks are placed after placing them above the visual sensor
-Robot: Place where programming happens and visual sensor is placed
