well the last 2 quarters me and my friend have been working on our senior design project for electrical engineering. It's basically a tank you can control through the internet, its got video feedback and a turret you can fire.

you can switch the gun out for a robotic arm if you want. Diffuse a bomb, open a soda....idno use your imagination.

Heres a youtube link of the first demo we got on vid:

We didn't load the gun with any ammo because we were in a school lab filled with faculty, you can still see the gun recoiling when you instruct it to fire. Ill get a video of it firing real rounds soon, its pretty intense (like scary intense, that thing will leave some serious bruises on you).

I wish we had more time / money to fabricate our own steel casing but we were happy with the results.

anyways hope you enjoy
