Color Related Material Sorting has widespread use in the fruit selection and candy filtering markets. This project provides a method for the identification and sorting of color objects via image processing. Once a process has been established, it is used to arrange candies into different buckets of bins.

Here, the project illustrates this process through the use of a camera with an automated electronics circuit along with 3 bins sorting system. To accomplish this objective, the system uses an ESP8266 Wi-Fi module linked to an Arduino Uno microcontroller circuit.
Project Implementation:
The controller electrical system comprises a camera connected to it that measures the color of a small material in front of it. A motor is used to drive the camera chamber on a mechanism. Once the color is observed, a pulse is sent to the sorter process using a motor to move the sorter tubes to the corresponding segment. A feeder is then used to move the item toward the tubs and filter it out and then feeder pushes the next entity in. Details of the activity are sent to the IoT server using IoT Gecko framework to monitor the number of items listed in each segment. Following are the components required to build the gadget:
ESP8266 Wi-Fi module: It is a system-on-chip (SoC) that incorporates a 32-bit microcontroller, antenna switches, power amplifier, and filters. It is compatible of 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) with general-purpose input/output (16 GPIO pins). It also includes Inter-Integrated Circuit, analog-to-digital conversion (10-bit ADC), DMA (GPIO), UART (GPIO2), and pulse-width modulation (PWM). This tiny module enables microcontrollers to link to a Wi-Fi channel and create basic TCP / IP connections.
Arduino Uno: It is an open-source microcontroller board created by Arduino.cc and focused primarily on the ATmega328P microcontroller Computer chip. The board is configured with a collection of analog and digital input/output (I / O) pins that can be accessed with different boards for development and other circuits.
LCD Display: It is a kind of flat panel screen in its primary operational phase using liquid crystals.
Adapter: It reduced supply voltage from 120V to 12V which is suitable for an antenna or other small electronic machines. The incoming electric rapid rise might practically destroy the device's internal parts, therefore an adapter is used to control voltage surge.
