mechanically i love it, but i don't understand how the programing is going that fast, mine takes a good amount of time to react. one other thing, do you know anything about getting the NTX program to work on a mac? i got a new computer a while back and just started using my nxt again this week, but i can't add programing until i get this figured out.
@Scerab Indeed it took a bit of tweaking to get it fast enough (mainly use unlimited motor blocks). Sorry, I'm not a mac guy. But LEGO software should work fine on it???
Marvellous! I built it and was totally amazed! Great job! The most extraordinary color sorter I have seen so far, most of the color sorters I seen on Youtube are the slow one that comes with the box.
what program did you use on this robot? NXC or NXT-G ?

@TheNeXTStorm she used NXC but it works on NXT-G too

how do you convert the programming language on the site into a script?

@Dudeofmanyhobbies Yeah, needs good lighting to film, but this reduces the reliability of color sensor... Works better in dim lighting!

@PhiloYT no, it doesn't seem to, but they may have another version somewhere.

@DJReidak No offense ;)
Yes, I have a version using NXT-G 2.0 . See details on my webpage (link in video details).

I never knew the color sensor can see the color and react so fast. Brilliant!

Thanks, Parax.
Yes, the friction pin as clutch is THE trick that makes it work!
PhiloYT 2 years ago
Nice use of a fricion pin as a clutch on the switching, Seems this has at least three advantages over positional (angular) switching!
First: speed - enables fast flick if precision is not required.
Second: simplified programming - I noticed that from yellow ball to green ball the first sorter is already in position but the motor still drives.
Third: calibration - startup calibration is not required as its not position dependent!
Great job Philo!
