Here’s a pro-tip guys. If you need two of the same, cut them at the same time by stacking two pieces of MDF on top of each other. That also makes finishing them easier, because you sand and vile the same amount and through holes align perfectly.
Tiny adjustment: just add an airsoft laser on one of the rails and on video it will show exactly where the barrel is pointing. Bonus points: add an IR laser so only the camera can see the laser but not the people being shot!
I want to create a spotlight that will follow any trespassers who wander down our driveway at night looking to break into our car. This is perfect solution. Thank you.
Thank you for this!! I plan on making a Glados/Jarvis like ceiling mounted following camera to start workshop livestreams. This video is definitely going to be helpful

I really want to learn anf build all this. But i get totally lost here, having just some arduino experience. It would be sooo nice if there would,be a long video out there starting for beginners to make me/us confident that it will work and that its worth to buy all the hardware!
This is awesome! Thank you for the inspiration and instructions. We are trying to build our own, but with a big Nerf gun and trying to use Scratch 2 instead of Python (not sure how we will do the facial recognition, but it’s easier for us kids;) We got it to fire the gun and a laser pointer so far ... take a look and give us some tips:)
This is what I wanted to Make! 👍but for my outside camera, which doesn't have Motion Auto tracking. I plan on building a frame that holds the camera, and moves when the sensor picks up movement. There's a part I can't see with the Camera, I don't want to install another camera, this will be another alternative, and its cool!
Does the camera have to be connected to the computer as well as the raspberry pi at the same time to do the interactive mode? Is it possible to load that motion tracking code onto the raspberry Pi and running independent of a computer?
Could make your turret shoot ballistic rubber bullets and smarter where it targets and shoots certain people (burglars for example and not you, your family nor friends), so it only recognizes burglars, and other enemies. Like maybe find and download images of recent criminals then upload it to your thing and it will remember and recognize them. It's Rotating speed could be adjusted to be faster.
Imagine being a cop , and someone call the police for a complaint if someone making an airsoft gun , and he put it on his roof , you get all your cop car and you immediately get blasted by it
If I were to take out the turret and replace it with a flashlight/laser, would the code still work or would I have to change the code? It is mostly the camera tracking I am hoping will still work.
Davis and I don't normally watch his videos, so we were unaware that he did something similar. Hopefully we could provide our own entertainment value :)
So after seeing all those comments about Linus I watched his video, and there was not even proper video about device in action, only talk about how they made it, without demonstration of it in work. Waste of time...
I wish i could make this work, but since it doesn't and the raspberry pi, somehow flew out into the busy road, guess it wont, didn't help my ptsd much.
You'd need a much heavier base. Maybe a wheel hub from a truck and a brake rotor or wheel would work. Also you'd have to make sure it's not autonomous or automatic to avoid legal trouble.
I immiediately had an idea for a cosplay that could be done of predator from the movies. To do so youd need a shell resembling a futuristic cannon. Likely to shorten the legs just slightly. The rotating platforms diamater reduced just slightly and hook the bottom (non moving disc) to a door hinge to give it motion and an electric piston. To let it go from an neutral to active position (on back to on shoulder and ready to fire). Hook up the conyrols to a small device if possible such as a phone and set phone in wrost mounted bracer similar to predators wrist weapon. Youll be able to look as though your predator activating his blaster via wrist controller device. Highly reccomended additive is tracer drum or mag and tracer pellets for add glowing green effect and a 3 lasers connected to left,right and bottom of barrel to give it that signature tri beam aiming system. Please feel free to let me know what yall think of this idea
One basic question about drawing a circle with a cable and a pen.. Why didn't you use a compass for this ? i know some people like to do things on hard mode but a compass is not what you would call a expensive item to get.
healthy days. how can I contact with you . . I want to buy this project. Don't be afraid, I'm not a terrorist, I have a wild animal problem on my farm.
