• The webcam itself is a custom build, mounted on a custom-built tilt-and-pan mount that lets it freely rotate to view any location in the garage.
• Some custom software running on a Raspberry Pi lets it operate in autonomous mode or be controlled manually from an Android tablet.
• It also carries a Nerf machine gun with a laser sight and spotlights which can all be controlled autonomously by the Raspberry Pi.
• These types of Nerf guns are fairly popular for turrets as well, and some have practical uses as well like keeping cats from walking on the kitchen counters.
