Final project
Color sorting has become a staple of modern automation. Often, machines will tag parts with different colored stickers that will dictate their fate. For example, a red sticker may mean reject, a blue sticker may mean Line B, and a green sticker may mean part accepted. It’ll all depend on the manufacturing process. For our final project, we’re going to make a simulated color sorter to help sort boxes based on sticker color.
Requirements
The following are the actions and conditions that the machine will need to take:
- The machine will have an
input
variable that will dictate which state the machine is in. When the input is1
, the machine will turn on; when the input is2
, the machine will turn off; and when the input is3
, the machine will go into standby mode. - When the machine is running, it must read the color-code variable that will store the color code of the sticker it is reading.
- If the color code is red, we need to reject the part...
