Peter Ehrlich made this interesting robot to stand up lines of dominos (one of a kind).
It was programed with leJOS, a Java programming language for LEGO MINDSTORMS (NXJ).
Some characteristics of this robot, include:
- Accurate domino placement in lines and arcs, of any length and radius.
- Sound sensor to "hear" domino fall.
- Custom line shapes via text file.
- On-screen line selection.
Fairly precise and effective!
It looks like great fun can came out of this.

Nice but a tad overcomplicated. Matthias Wendel has made a KISS-solution (even if it can't handle turns - but a wee bit of NXT would solve that).
See it on YouTube and read about it here.
@Tobbe Arnesson,
Yes I know. This one is already a classic considering the number of views. :)
But I didn't like the motor... :D
The load/feeding principle is however very simple and effective.
BTW: The link for the documentation is not working.
Ooops, my bad. Here's the documentation.
