The hypothesis is that the light sensor will be able to cope better than the touch sensor as a counter, even if the speed of the conveyor is increased.

You will set up a conveyor belt with a light sensor and a touch sensor, and two electronic counters. You will place 100 boxes on the conveyor belt and measure the number of boxes counted at different speeds.

You will need a conveyor belt, a light sensor, a touch sensor, two electronic counters, 100 boxes, and a stopwatch.

The experiment showed that the light sensor was able to detect and count all 100 boxes at all 3 different speeds, while the touch sensor was only able to detect and count 95 boxes at 5 meters per-minute and 77 boxes at 8 meters per-minute.

This science project is interesting because it demonstrates the effectiveness of different types of sensors in a real-world application.

Consider repeating the experiment using a proximity sensor, or by increasing or decreasing the space between the boxes.
