Quad Delta Robot Pic & Place LEGO Robot

This insane creation, entirely made out of LEGO, came to us via our forum. Not satisfied with making a single pick-and-place delta robot, Shep built four of them and put them above a conveyor belt and made them sort colored blocks.

The video shows how the four robots sort the blocks quite rapidly and precisely. See a detailed write-up of the project at Shep's Blog, Tinkernology. This amazing construction was inspired by an equally amazing delta robot by ABB, the Flexpicker. See the Flexpicker in action below (its insane speed makes up for the fact it is not made out of LEGO).
