    There IS a thread for youtube videos, you know.


    Sentry is cool, but I wonder if it's just a cool thing to have or if he might actually get to use it.

    I don't agree that this should be in the youtube videos, having it as it's own thread allows discussion centered around this.
    I could have sworn this video was posted somewhere before though... like in the youtube videos thread...

    It's pretty cool. Reminds me of the laptop gun from perfect dark. It would be pretty awesome for my friend who is on either an airsoft team or a paintball team. He could just quickly set this up anywhere and protect an area. Only issue is that right now it doesn't have any target discrimination, and it seems like it takes too much time to deploy.

    Very cool though.

    Also...
    It's definitely been done before... I think there is even a turret contest thing at Defcon. The cool aspect of this one is really just how it is portable and that he plans to sell them.

    Would be cool if it has a team recognition capabilities as well. To keep it in TF2 realm, Red transmits "red team" trough bluetooth or wifi while Blu does their thing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    We could also get spies that way and sappers haha...

    Cool. Well, now we can all talk about it and consider how awesome Perfect Dark was... I wonder how the HL2 PD mod is going

    I'd love to see what it'd do if a constantly moving image was projected on the wall.
