Lego factory that builds Lego cars

I came across this 6 minute video clip of this Lego factory that builds cars consisting of 5 Lego parts each.
It would be challenging yet real world for for a robotisist to build a robot, not limited to using Lego parts and has to use optical recognition to locate, recognize and put the Lego parts together to build the same car as the Lego factory. If you could use a Propeller chip for the CPU you could have a fastest building contest called the lone Parallax against the factory Lego team.

    This is cool. Wonder how he kept everything synchronised? Wish I had enough free time to do stuff like that. Optical recognition for something like this would be a lot easier if every different piece was a different colour. Unless you had something like this it would be pretty hard to use the prop for optical recognition. Other than that the programming should be fairly easy on the propeller. Why don't you have a go and enter it in the propeller design contestsmile.gif

    Could this be done with the basic stamp 2? That was amazing, it would be cool for someone to build one that assembles say the OEM basic stamps...
