This lego great ball contraption (GBC) module uses a mindstorms ev3 to control a ball sorting and ball counting mechanism. The module was programed using micropython / python. The module keeps track of the ball count, the count to left and right, the ball per second, and ball per minute. Obviously this was programed using python, which presented some challenges. (I am familiar with almost all major programing languages with the exception of python as a result of my computer science degree... ) In the end I decided to use threads for each of the main tasks of counting the balls and sorting by color. It makes it run much better and faster than just putting all the code in t he main program loop. Hope you like the module!
