Building Buddy (v1.0.0)

The new LEGO Color & 3D Shape Sensor is pre=programmed to know every LEGO brick ever! Combined with the LEGO Voice brick, it can find and deliver any brick you want.

To begin, turn it on and take it where you want to build. Say "Set location" and it will remember every movement to be able to return.
Say, for example, "I need three blue one by eight pieces" to the bot. It will start searching for bricks within three feet* and once it finds a pile, it will start looking for the brick(s) you requested. It checks for the shape. Once it finds one, it checks the color. If they match, it puts the pieces into it's dumper on the back and retraces the path it took (backwards) back to the location you set and dumps the pieces.

And with the special app, you can program this color/shape sensing block! You can make 3D shapes using the modeling 
tool. The sensor checks the dimensions of the item to see if they match. If they do, you choose the action to output. You can connect other official LEGO elements such as a motor, lights, etc.
Through the app, you can program it to do many things. It can clean your floor, help disabled or elderly people, feed your dog, and much more!
There are three five sizes; mini, normal, large, extra large, and ultra large.
Each size has a purpose:
- Mini ones can be used to fit into small places. If combined with LEGO lights, it can find pieces lost under furniture.
- Normal is... normal, for finding pieces in a pile.
- Large can be used to clean up messes.
- Extra large can be used to take care of pets.
- Ultra large can be used to help disabled or elderly people with tasks that are hard for them to complete.

You don't have to just use the LEGO finding. You can rebuild it to do many other things using the Color & 3D Sensor brick.

Pre-Programmed Features:
- Full library of LEGO bricks/colors.
- Set location command, so it comes back.
- Set pile command, so it knows where the LEGO pile is.
- Return command.
- Light sensor.

*search radius can be made bigger or smaller.
