Head Controlled Paintball Robot

With just a little bitty Army contract, you can take that robot paintball turret that we saw a week or so ago, mount it on a QinetiQ SWIFT (an intermediate prototype between this and this), and rig it up to be controlled by head movements. It’s not just for the cool factor (although there’s definitely a cool factor); head control is easy to train, easy to use, and requires no hands. They’ve got the basic system running on this sweet little indoor tank, too:
Every office absolutely needs one of those.
