The ultimate LEGO Factory

I found this website video today.

The factory is capable of building virtually anything using the 95 types of bricks available from the built-in warehouse. Models for the factory are designed using LEGO Digital Designer (LDD) and are interpreted by a custom software written for MS Windows. After interpretting the LDD file (model), the software generates a set of building instructions for the factory to produce the model, and sends them to the factory master NXT which distributes tasks among other four NXTs.

At the respective YouTube description, Martijn reports the following data:

• Warehouse: 95 different bricks with a total of 1520 bricks in stock.
• Maximum model size: 16 x 22 x 11 (W x L x H, in bricks).
• Models designed in Lego Digital Designer (LDD).
• Controlled with 5 NXTs.
• Total construction time: 4.5 months (Jun-Oct 2010).
• Aprox. 150 hours of LEGO building + Aprox. 100 hours of programming (5 NXT's and LDD model processing software).
• Total amount of bricks: 25.000 (estimated value).

There are also seven other videos.
