Question

I am trying to use an Arduino UNO Board to create a nerf sentry gun to shoot at people I don't like. I suck at coding but really want to do this. Can someone come up with code for these parameters:
Controls a servo that turns the turret head 360 around, 90 up/down radius.
On the computer HUD:
Ammo counter
Highlights 'enemies' in red.
Programmable sleep timer.
And last but not least, a facial recognition program to add/remove targets.

I already have the camera, computer, and Nerf gun.
I need the servo, arduino, and programming skills.

Please please please.

Answer 1

Well i could do the coding for you but seriously it would take a lot of time and it would be very long . how ever i am on vacation if u gave this to a professional programmer he would charge u money and ya if u pay me i can do this for u !!! but tell me more about it

First, I assume you are going to have this device by your computer? I say that because Arduino cannot do facial recognition by its self. You need a Micro Processor (PC) not a micro-controller, which that is what an Arduino board has on it. You need a computer. You would have the computer do the recognition and then send the whatever parameters through the usb to Arduino.

Now, Arduino can do everything else but the face recognition is going to be a problem. I suggest you use a beagle bone black or a raspberry pi, which can do everything Arduino can so and more. Also,they are better for face recognition. Also, I would use openCV

Thanks MDoodler that helps with a lot. I haven't done projects like this before, so I am not really knowledgeable about this. And hari5719 I'll just go use one of those programs where you specify parameters and it creates blocks of code for you.

Thanks to everyone who posts.

1 more comment sorry I keep forgetting to put these. I will post the sentry on instructables eventually under username EpicMinecrafter. I will credit you guys in it.
