Interesting… I wonder what sensor he is using to detect the color.
He has some other interesting machines to… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYZEmPsPfhg
Im fairly sure the system is not detecting colour. Sorting looks based on block length and it just happens to be that each length is a different colour. The spacing between adjacent bins is such that a block will fall only if the length is correct.
