Lolly colour sorting robot.

It seems someone at the office has a sweet tooth, as for this month I was tasked with creating a machine that can sort M&M’s by their colour. It turns out it wasn’t as complex as I originally thought, and it was quite inexpensive. There is quite a bit of 3D printing required, but the electronics is quite straightforward. By using the Arduino platform we have made it user friendly to even the novice electronics enthusiast.
