M&M sorting machine

In his spare time this gentleman has come up with a decent M&M sorting machine

Quote:
My approach sends M&Ms down a chute to start with. But I don’t stop the M&M for colour recognition. Instead I use an iPhone to capture the colour of the M&M as it is in freefall. As it is still falling the iPhone talks to a Bluetooth module attached to an Arduino and that fires off the correct electro magnet controlled gate.
Why didn't I think of that.
