2. Project Overview
Design of a turret with an armature structure that holds an airsoft gun
Detect and fire at enemies through both motion and threshold detection
Gun will pan/tilt based off coordinates translated by the microcontroller from the video feed
Friendlies can disarm the weapon with a remote

3. Design Challenges Faced
Component choice (µC vs DSP)
Speed, memory, peripherals, pinout
External Bus Interface with RAM
I2C interface with Camera
Centering the Gun Assembly for stability
Stable motor control software and hardware
Noise reduction on fire control and IR receivers
