nerd fagett

[Darkus20000]

Erecting a sentry!

[Ten0692]

Now, if that could go wireless, I'd mount that at my patio door, and snipe off those pesky squirrels in my yard. One for my front door too!

[BakerDaMan3000]

Thumbs up for the one hater!

[MrAirsoftgunmaster]

Holy shit thats tight!!!

[callofdutyboy16]

Cool how long did that take to make

[shaven12]

@callofdutyboy16 I made it in an afternoon. It didn't take too long and most of the time was spent modding the gun so that I could use the camera in tact as well as the magazine.

[TheRyanHund]

@shaven12 Is this powered by an Arduino?

[shaven12]

Not to bad. There is a sliding part on the front of it that allows for easy access to the magazine on top.

[TheItalian26]

reloading ?

[xSonicHedgehogx]

I want one.

[kingsheldon337]

which part of college did you take?

[shaven12]

@kingsheldon337 Not sure exactly what you mean.

[kingsheldon337]

@shaven12 i mean did you take college engineering?

[shaven12]

@kingsheldon337 No... but lots of taking everything in my house apart. Most notable was a travel alarmclock that had about 15 gears that just fell out and I had to figure out the right way to put it back together. Just like tinkering I guess.

[masoncline11]

if you are at an office when someone you hate says something bad about you just us the gun to shoot them

[LocustsOfSteel]

How much would you charge if you were to build these for sale?

I have these really anoying racoons that show up by my trash can every night, and it would be great to pop them without even geting up from my pc :D

[shaven12]

@LocustsOfSteel Sorry.. I only made the one as a test case. I am trying to find the time to make an instructional video, but haven't made it that far. Just need to make the time.

Stac...

[LocustsOfSteel]

@shaven12 Well, considering the foam launchers sell well, i'd asume an airsoft one with a camera would sell better, not just to the average office worker, but to an even broader consumer base, you really shuld consider making steps toards marketing this before someone else beats you to the punch.

[ITSJUSTMEFORNOW]

can you send me the intructions on how to make one. im into airsoft and i think that would be something kinda cool to have on the battle field.

[shaven12]

@ITSJUSTMEFORNOW You would need the computer though. Pretty much only practical in the office setting. Sorry..

Stac...

[eagames2007]

@shaven12 lol use a netbook

[Cryvern]

how did you make the firing mechanism?

[shaven12]

@Cryvern It is actually an Airsoft gun. Do you mean how did I connect the airsoft to the missile launcher base?

Stac...

[shaven12]

@Dijele It is one that I found on eBay. Just a generic camera. If you are running 64 bit make sure that the camera that you buy explicitly says 64bit.

Stac...

[ironbuster]

that is........SWEET!!!! that would see so cool to use!

[Mega666Mike]

Nice gadget!

[arockolypto]

don't sniff cat urin mmkaayy? where would I purchase one of these fine specimins?

[taitai907]

Defense for tour cubicle.

[FutureHerpKeeper]

Now we could include engineers in airsoft wars (;

[BigdogWitBigdog]

finally the dualshock controller put to use! (I'm kidding rabid fanboys)

[TheAirsoftgroup]

plz can you make a tutorial!

[shaven12]

I would love to. Just need the time to be able to pull that off.

Stac...

[mercforhire1]

@shaven12 how come you put "stac..." at the end of your comments?

[CheatCamel]

lulz when your camera gets shot out of your gun XD

[maglevtech]

wow thats cool, can it be laser guided with motion tracking?

[junglevacuum]

hey bud could u please give me a link of where to buy the USB turny-upy-downy thing? i really wanna build one of these

[shaven12]

Search for Dream Cheeky USB missile launcher. You will find it.

[AGeekForever]

Do you sell them fully assembled? Price?

[rzq100]

i have the gun u used to make this. its like 20 bucks

[trinitysoldier11]

Wow.. nicely done! :D

[CaptainDominic]

um tried this before how did you wire teh motor of the bbgun to the turret

[taztwin2]

inventgeek(dot as in . )com

[airsoftpro808]

@taztwin2 im kinda interested because i want 2 make 1 of these...

[shaven12]

I don't have the plans yet. I just need to make the time to create them.

Stac...

[chair5432]

PTZ Camera Mount

Servo

Controller

Gun (hacked up)

[isaactrio]

did you build or did you buy it and if so how much was it>?

[shaven12]

I built it. And total parts were about $110. That included bullets for the gun.

[ProBinderSpinner]

that is so fucking sweet.

It's like a video game almost. except you shoot real people with real pellets.

[solidsnakec11]

holy $***

[MrAirsoftManiac]

did you have crosshairs? Nice gun!!

[delzon555]

I did the same thing except I stuck an airsoft gun and camera to a robot... awesome for airsoft wars

[OBEYWEEGEE]

FPS??!?!

[shaven12]

About 300ish.

[OBEYWEEGEE]

dude.... good job on that 1 cause thats strong for a turret

[coolchilhot]

u should place one outside ur home so when someone is comming u can fire on him

[thatthingsucked]

OMG i want to do this cool shit!

[Masterkiller9000]

That is perfect I need one of that to keep somebody out of my room!

[valerianspeed]

u cant bring that on a field but can guard your room

[kawana87]

it'd be cool to make an automated version. Have it lock onto moving objects and fire :P

[howisdiscool]

you might be able to do that w/ lego mindstorms nxt

[Schwachkopf2344]

man thats awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kkr3wK]

LOL Thats cool! If I ever work at a office Im going to do that and shoot random people. Maby my boss.

[BigVV11]

That is the sickest thing i've evr seen!!! How'd you make it!!!!????

[huskerl]

He dindt build the hole device! search in google for usb rocket launcher with webcam and you`ll get the main part of it. After that take the rokets away and add an airsoft... voila So hes really not that smart as he acts. At least the mod is made exactly and without using tape or hot glue:)

[Dsport1312]

thats beast

[creiners07]

that seems more useful lol

[creiners07]

lol wow what a watse of time y dont u just pick it up and shoot it instead of investing all that time in making a turret, when all u have to do is shoot it rofl lol it has no advantage over any person shooting it

[shaven12]

Well one thing that you can't see in the video is that there is a web interface that allows you to control it remotely as well. So you don't have to be right there. :)

[hellwolf129]

COOL!

[valtronaatixx]

LOL

[Hollygolf6]

Really Cool!

[Zipyzipszips]

nigger

[awesomemattmega]

Haha I wonder what that'd do to my neighbor's cats!

[allenda77]

[troysKILLbruins]

[HaloHedgehog22]

[julian23703]

[4Q3W2E1R]

[TheSnipingBunny]

Man I can imagine setting one up outside my house.

"Hello, is the homeowner here?"

"Yeah, one second"

*Grabs controller, aims*

"Auugh!! AHH! Owowowowow!"

[ThatGuy878]

[CLK430Lorinsor]

nerd

[invisiblekid1992]

I bet you could piss people off with one of those!!! LOL

I'd buy one.

[spoiledworm]

can you make it wireless?

[BeyondHell55]

(sic)

[LocustsOfSteel]

I've seen a couple of vids on here of people making these...

Do you realize that you could probably sell them on eBay and make money off this EXTREMELY cool toy?

I'll buy one!

[blaineanator]

easy to beat just run in with a board!

[kaos5223]

that is awsome i want 1

[Audio360]

Where do you get that? I want one.

[danielz2012]

ooh, can protect my room so no one will go in exept me

[NKVDdevaint1]

not a big fan of airsofts but id buy that1

[crazyfreakypunk]

I need one for my room lol

[googuy999]

Ultimate office protection! great turret

[yesturtle]

siick

[kingtutofrs]

By the way, what kind of Airsoft gun is that? Just like a mini or something?

[Crussy777]

its a mini mp5 from wal mart lol

[kingtutofrs]

So that looks like a classroom or office...

Do you use that to discipline students/co-workers?

[RipTyde26]

LOL!

[Kevtheman25]

thats a little more juiced up than what u buy at the store, my god the rate of fire must have doubled

[ireallyjustdunno]

u probably got a plastic gear box electric

[assasin805]

1 word, UBER X-D

[spancat03]

Great!! I need something like this for shooting mice in my loft. Tried poison and nearly killed the dog.

[mavamaarten]

nice gun !

[viralcast]

C'mon Stacy... I'll be the first to buy the "how to make it" ebook.

Wip it out man!

I had to have one the minute I saw it in your office ;-)

[muikku93]

The only bad thing about that turret is that it needs an computer to see where it is aiming at.Seriously no one carries an computer when hes playing airsoft.Or atleast i dont :D

[shaven12]

Another thing that wasn't demonstrated in the video is that in the application I have the ability to connect to it via a webpage. In the webpage I have controls, a fire button, and the same camera view just as if I was sitting right there. Not that it would help me to play airsoft, but it can scare the heck out of someone who came to my office and didn't expect it to be possessed.

[theguitarhero3]

damn i need and i meen NEED that for our team. the other team is kicking our butt.

[treestump401]

thats a bad gun but it doesnt matter i would be totally freak out if i walked in with that pointed at me and you standing there with a controller in your hands... thats totally awesome

[shaven12]

FYI - I realize that you can't see it in the video, but there are crosshairs on the display, in the center of the video feed from the gun. It is pretty accurate for targeting, well for short distance anyway. It was more of a pet project to keep people from walking into my office with "Demands". This will limit what needs to be done to "Requests".

Stac...

[geek519]

can you make a DIY?

[shaven12]

I will. This one was more of a test trial. I am waiting to see what kind of response I get to see if it is worth while.

Stac...

[fillmorejd]

This is awesome!
