Sorter Pocket Route

sorter-pocket-route

An ambient processing/organizing loader modeled on a Hollerith tabulating-machine card sorter's chute: cards drop single-file down a center track, a gate flap swings to a heading and each card curves off with it into one of five numbered pockets below, the pockets filling unevenly forever as a rolling 14-card window with the oldest card fading on overflow.
