RSSHOW TO make a Sentry Gun
The idea of this project was to create a fully-automated sentry gun, capable of picking out a human target and accurately tracking and shooting him or her in the heart. Really, the idea was to find a cool robotics project for the summer while I was working at an advertising agency, and I'd only ever seen sentry guns in movies (like Congo) and video games (Half-Life 1, Half-Life 2, Team Fortress Classic).

That has got to be one of the coolest things I have ever seen...
I need to build one of those, at the very least to scare the crap out of my roommate.

I can't believe you admitted you have seen the movie Congo.
