Its a program on Discovery Science channel about how many things are made and then shipped to market. Bags of chips/crisps are on one show. A computer watches them fly by a camera, and puffs of air are used to toss bad ones off the line. The chips/crisps are litteraly flying across a small gap between machines in the packing line when this happens. The computer controlled gates are also shown dropping the product into bags, and then the bags are sealed.
