"Oh hey look a civilian airliner"

bro built a level 0.5 turret

now THAT's an engineer gaming moment

"Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer."

Remember to fire the whole bullet for 50% more bullet per bullet

“Ain’t that a cute lil gun” -tf2 Engineer 2007

It sounds like a sentry gun and looks like a sentry gun and it also functions like a sentry gun, well done

For all of you who are considering creating a similar indoor build, but fully americanized, a heads up: it's still legally a booby-trap, even if it only targets civilian airliners.

As my grandfather once said "if you want to build a real working car, first build a toy car, then just make it bigger" the saying is weird in English because we are not from the states, but the same can be applied here, you made a toy sentry, if you make it bigger, it's a real sentry

"the limit switch switches limits" Truer words have never been said.

Great job. Seems like a fun project. Would be great to have links to code, 3D printable turret parts STL files, and your Amazon parts list.

Spy sappin my sentry! Disguise added to sentry!

buildin' a sentry *pow* ( *Frontier Justice Music plays in background* ) *Engineer sits down on dispenser saying "Life of Riley"*

Great video, The sound of the stepper motor on the desk is terrifying. It's nice to se for once a good project that is simple enough to do its job.

ISAC: “Rogue assault turret detected.” ISAC: “Hostile assault turret detected.”

I appreciate the simplicity of your tracking system

Bro really said ⬅️⬇️⬆️⬅️➡️

That sound it makes! If you don’t get scared by the gun, the sound will definitely do it! Sounds like Cylon!

If i remember correctly there is this adafruit camera for raspberry pi that has no-code object detection/ deep learning. Its a bit more expensive than normal camera module but training the camera is like playing a toy so its easy.

I predict a future mechatronics engineer. And possibly...broken bones from a real nasty fall when you slip on one of the airsoft bbs you will inevitably miss cleaning up. Be safe! Good job!

It obviously needs the portal turret soundfiles to play after engaging the target. Great work man! You Are living my dreams!

6:28 RIP headphones users [*]

Imagine taking this to Airsoft game, you would be unstoppable

It makes all the right noises and deserves its own 3d printed exo shell

veri cool outro. definitely didnt wake up my whole family

imagine putting a real glock and trying to dodge the bullets

Very cool, but I think the stepper driver is really bad/not working properly. The sound it's dreadful

Good job, no extra crap and just got it to work which a lot of people spend too much time on getting it perfect instead of just getting it to work

It took valve 8 months (maybe longer) to build a level 1 sentry that didn’t even shoot and then they just left it to rot

* Alarms * *INTRUDER ALERT RED SPY IN THE BASE* Soldier: Red Spy in the base!?

YES! Been thinking of something like this for home defence. Couple it with AI and a rock salt shotgun and sell it at Cabelas.

Thank you. Exactly what I’ve been looking for!

So my question is, if you have another object that isn't moving, say a water bottle in the way, how would the sentry distinguish between the object that triggered the motion sensor and the other object sitting in its path? The rangefinder only finds objects within the area of 2 meters so it would shoot at literally anything within those 2 meters moving or not. If I were you, I would check the sensor and see if any events are fired detailing the location or at least general direction of the object which moved, and then the first function of the rangefinder would be to search that immediate area. This could also be done possibly by using multiple sensors in a circular arrangement with a narrow field of vision, whichever sensor fires first is where the sentry rotates to face first, this way you can at least target something in the general area of the detected motion and not just the wall

Cool . You should market that . In regards to turning it on/off without being shot , use a remote switch .

Sentry turrets are cool, but we need more manual or remote controlled concepts. Perhaps remote from PC (Mouse seems easier.) but i supposed controller would work too.

If you do want to program the software seen in his video you might want to start with the “Blob detection video - Coding Train” or try deriving a recognition software of your own. There are also built in libraries for some of this software. It is a lot of code though

that sound is terrifying!!! But great build, new sub!

You seem to be getting closer and closer to 1000 subs dude. Are you uploading new video soon? You really have talent for making quality content! 👍

It does kinda look like a very simple CIWS or CRAM system, but if you wanted to use object detection, you can easily do so (in Python, I’m still somewhat learning c++) with OpenCV, cvLib, and pyfigmata (to control the arduino). I’m currently working on something similar using object detection, except I’m going to be building an RC airsoft tank. It’s a tank with aimbot (: Also, for the tank I’ll be using a raspi instead of an arduino, to run the code without a computer.

“Governor kit, upgrades from the PDC”

Made one like that for airsoft play on a drone the turret auto tracks targets when active so all I gotta do is fly. Sometimes is scary that this is also done in real life.

🥺💬 That is a very nice room protector, somebody will tell you to add a camera for widescreen scanning or placing spot or long-load bullets pallet but with the same device in codes you can work with parallel moves, and multiple actions simultaneously because it does not require to working at only one action at a time but you can target multiple invades with a penalty shot. ( That is Aduino but it message event or ACK is working in C too )

Amazing It ultimately shoots everything that moves including mouse😅

I’m trying to figure out how to make an automated disc shooter for my cat, I have the toy already that does it but I’d like to automate it. I think I could use the toy and components from it to spin the disc, but how would you recommend I hook up the electronics ? Any one thing I should buy to get started ?

I think this is more of a statement of how shitty the times are that a guy capable of building an automated sentry turret still lives with his parents.

Looks neat. You'll have a faster scanning response if instead of returning to zero position after scanning, you just start scanning from the other side. Kind of like the Cylon eye in Battlestar Galactica.

Bro this vidoe made me want to build a whole war base in my room now.

This gives me some ideas to upgrade the system and maybe even provide some explosive ordinance.

Cool project! And really entertaining video!

I don’t know why but I love how almost all homemade machines/robots look like bombs

Pretty cool. Also thx for destroying my headphones at the end lol

We are doing a turret atm with a neural network, that can learn what to target. We are doing it with a camera and full hd, but the raspberry only manages to do 10 fps which is to slow for fast moving targets and we also programmed lead, therefor we have to switch to computer for more power, so we can have atleast 30fps.

love your work station

Good day sir.... Great job on yor turret projekt..... Is there any way yu kould tell where tu get that *kode*.... It would be greatly appreciated.

Bro I gotta suggestion that instead of that 2 side rotatory you could fix a 360 degree ball socket With a little adjustment in your programming it'll work pretty well So that your creepy cannon could shoot to any direction

Love this idea but personally would have gone with paintballs. Having played both games, I've come to the conclusion that while airsoft pellets can do more soft tissue damage than paintballs with their high psi, they hurt less on impact and therefore have less stopping power. Paintballs carry considerably more energy to target and inflict more pain, while also having a much lower chance of causing external bleeding. Airsoft pellets leave bug-bite like abrasions on the skin, while paintballs leave large bruises. Do you want the trespasser to feel like they've been bitten, or like they've been punched?

"Hey look buddy I'm an engineer That means I solve problems. Not problems What is love. I solve practical problems "

My dumbass would ABSOLUTELY go overboard on this id try to make it look like a CWIS or Abrams turret lmaooo

Put in a switch that flips off when a certain signal is continuosly broadcast within a specific range. Set up your phone to broadcast said signal. Homemade IFF for your room defense turret.

Bro your video is the bomb you made me laugh the whole time I was wondering the same thing I wanted to put it in my RC truck 😂😂😂

"WARNING, This room is guarded and monitored by an automated Turret and will shoot on sight" The Spy :

Just wholesome!!! 👍👍

If you're willing to dive into app programming, you can set up a remote switch for your phone so you can activate or deactivate your sentry when you're not there.

Put that down - it's a prototype. Don't let it overcharge! What d'ya mean, "Overcharge"?

Hello, I am trying to do a project like yours, I don't know if you could share the diagrams and the software and components used, thank you.

Please make this for retail sales. I would love to get one.

the limit switch switches limits had me DYING of laughter

"sir I need to comission a couple of these in miniature" "Why is that?" "I can't get rid of the gnats😅"

I understand that it was 2 years ago and I HOPE You already have Your own living space aka apartment or hause, but there are option to use as a keyring trinket(just don't know how to prpperly call it) some tracker or even a mibile phone or smart watches. With porpuse build tracker I think it be easier, but with smartphone or smartwatches more practical. For second option You need bluetooth module just monitoring active devices and switched on bluetooth on phone or watches(as I know watches mostly connected via bleutooth so it even not bother You in that case). Bluetooth range usually are 10m excluding walls if Your home have monolith concrete walls with rebars, so You at least be near when some one whish to enter room, otherwise if turret not detect You via active bluetooth device it on sentry mode. Just nice touch be to add speacker which vocalize first warning, but it be just polishing of concept.

people will fight to get this guy during the zombie apocalypse

Brilliant 👍

Imagine going into this guy's room for a screwdriver when this thing starts unloading candy into you while sounding like the eye of sauron

Wow.. You could do a mice killer with that.. Or also a bird hitter

I remember watching a guy build a sick one in a suitcase about 15 years ago.

Hey, I'm trying to do something similar. Where did you find the pistol part? I can't find any and if you don't remember, do you know the name of the part?

A turret with no external shutoff switch, it’ll be the perfect home defense system right next to knife tentacle

That's freaking awesome

"Perfect. And now no one will be afraid".

Where we can download your 3d printed model for Stepoer Motor??? Can you share it with us ?

That sound of the stepper motor sounds like a metal rock riff

0:42 Love the honesty 🤣

Nice I'd have just changed the lock but your idea is way funner

how do you only have 1.57k subs you deserve so much more

Now the only thing left to do is to make it self-deploy when hit by a wrench!

What software do you use

ok youtube you reading my mind now?? i was thinking about this 3hrs ago

"Sentry goin' up! " ahh contraption

I'd have just changed the door lock dude.

Literally the reason why i wanted to become an Engineer.

cool design dude

Nice mini sentry!

You don't have to worry about me taking anything since I'd never think to pull the door to open.

What program did you use for the modelling?

i absolutely love the sounds this thing makes. DRR DRR DRR DRR DRR DRR DRR VRRR rrRRRRRrrr

hey man, what gearbox did you get? that's a great project!

seems to be a lot of videos on yt of these grown men still living at home... sign of the times...

That's fkn cool I love static defenses

Awesome design, what do you think of my turret system? I opted for remote controllability over automation, thats yet to come ;)

perfect to scare cats that gather outsidee your backyard or other familiar scenarios , maybe also add cam to turn on and off with the sensor

cool project! :)
