A Lego machine that makes Lego machines? Genius!
I loves me some Lego, and this production line that creates Lego cars is fabulous. I’m amazed that someone would spend the time creating Lego that builds Lego – and in this scale.
Note the way they chose the colour of the parts at the start of the clip. It’s a little slow so you may want to fast forward occasionally, but I think it’s great. Makes me want to buy the Lego Mindstorms even more now!
I’m going to nerd out now: This is SO cool. I remember when I was younger (before Mindstorms) I used to do a program in elementary school called Lego Logo (similar idea, harder to use). I built a sorting machine that was pretty neat, but no where near as complete and complex as that thing. The time this must have taken to plan construct and build is impressive.
WOW..only just come accros this but how cool is this.
Production line Lego, i wonder how long it took to setup. I bet it wasnt as quick as it took to put back in the box.
Wow – how awesome is that!
Reminds me of my childhood in the early 70s playing with Lego (electronics just emerging by then). No Mindstorms yet. Thankful for my parents, especially my father to nurture my engineering interests (which now are combined with IT and economics ;-)).
Cheers, and thanks for the fantastic video

PS.: … having worked in the production area of BMW I know what complexity emerges building a real car.
