The Tank Paint Ball Gun

Posted in AV, Geeky by Dan at 10:08 am

What do you get when you mix geeks with a twisted sense of destruction and robotics? An impressive “tank” computer-controlled paintball gun that is capable of firing multiple rounds in rapid succession.

All electronics were made from scratch except the wireless receiver and transmitter, impressive!

    How do we know it works?…

    Could just be a robot with a soundcard that makes that noise…

    Well, I have faith what is submitted to me is true.

    Doesnt seem to be firing anything, sounds like the gun isn’t loaded.

    Still pretty cool.

    Wow some people are stupid. How could it not work, all they did was bootstrap a real paintball gun to a robot and threw a servo in to activate the trigger. Hardly newsworthy, but definetly not fake.
