Or maybe you get a certain satisfaction out of sorting your candies by color before eating them? One 19-year-old student found a solution: a candy color-sorting machine.

After seeing a color-sorting machine years back, Pennings decided to create his own and use it for the ultimate good: to sort shitty Skittles flavors so we don’t have to eat them.

The machine is 250 mm in diameter and approximately 300 mm in height,” writes Pennings. The system uses an RGB sensor to assess the color of the candy and place it into the proper dish.

Can This Machine Automatically Sort Balls by Color? A video purportedly showing a "Galton board" apparently sorting balls by color perplexed many viewers.
