I do have an idea for you that would mimic some of the inspection videos that I am working on. The Arduino and Raspberry Pis can integrate with small CCD cameras and with analog light sensors. Consider making the microprocessor something that would trigger to inspect a part and give a pass or fail signal. You could then treat it as a machine vision system or a sorter. The advance RSLogix500 project I am recording is a conveyor that sorts parts into bins, you could easily come up with cheap components to mimic that project. A small motor with belt could drive a belt conveyor made of cheap stuff. I can put the whole exercise in the library if you’d like.
