    very impressive work!

    Any ballpark estimates as to how many bricks went into building this?

    Have you used any adhesives to make things more permanent?

    I especially love the control system, ingenious solution!

    Your guess is as good as mine with the brick count. it's in the low tens of thousands. And as far as glue, absolutely not. it's standard Lego bricks using techniques to hold it all together.

    @TestMyVidsOut The conveyor belt moves at exactly 100 inches per minute. At the instant the blocks pass by the light sensor @2:08 a timer is started. Since the distance between the light sensor and the robot is known (in inches) the time that it takes to get to where the robot is easy to calculate.

    It would be easy to make if you had the several thousand it would cost to get the parts.

    People don't realize that these things aren't too hard to make (someone else already did the hard work in making things that are similar), the only hard part is getting the materials (who has 10 grand to throw around on Legos) and the time/patience.

    This is really great! I am impressed, having just built my first (very basic) sorting robot with my son. This is a really nice build. The only thing that would make it better is THIS:) youtubedoublerDOTcom/7m3i
